Reply Reply All Forward Delete Previous Next Close Here is my side story for the AAA. Tell me what you think! (BTW, do you think it would be a interesting plot twist?) Of Wolf and Man By John 'CrowBar' Hurst (MakoReno@aol.com) Edited by Lynxara (Lynxara@hotmail.com) Many things had been going on the night of the latest AAA Championship show. There was talk of the Moon Kingdom and the Mobius Belts already throughout all of the multiverse. A small, almost deserted road stood between him and Nerima, where the first round of the Mobius and Moon Kingdom belts would take place. His black hair, jeans, and dark shirt cut through the wind. He was roughly in his twenties. The tall grass beside the road blew, almost whispering. Behind the man's back was an odd sword, designed much like a tongue of flame, with several sharp flanges along it's razor sharp blade. He continued to walk, seeing Nerima in the distance. "I wish I had one of those teleporter thingies," he thought, continuing his pace throughout the midnight sky. He wanted to see this AAA tournament for himself... and more importantly, have some fun. And as he pondered these words, a wolf howled in the distance. He turned back, looking at the origin of the sound, but found nothing. He continued walking on. The next strange thing to happen was the appearance of an odd mist around his body. Slowing down to a safer pace, he looked around, the mist forming around him. "What the?" he thought. "It was clear a second ago! What gives?" And his question was answered. The mist bypassed him and went ten feet from where he was. The man stopped in his tracks, and saw the impossible. From the mist morphed a white wolf with rather large fangs and claws. The wolf stood up. Much to the man's surprise, the wolf stood roughly five and a half feet tall. The wolf approached him and smiled slightly. "Kali Hokuten, correct?" the wolf said. "That's correct. And what the hell do you want?" the man asked. "My name..." the wolf started, "... is Kefkain. I hunt for the blood of warriors, and it's been a while since I've had the blood of one of your type." Kali stood straight up, as if not being surprised by those words. "I see you aren't afraid of me. Very good for such a spirit," said Kefkain, smiling. "What do you want?" said Kali, unamused. "A simple favor," the wolf started up again. "A... friend and I were invited to a certain tournament called the Authors Avatar Association... have you heard of it?" "I have heard much of it," was Kali's only reply. "My young master and I seek to expand the dominion of the Dark One to many worlds. This dimension, the Author Avatar Arena, is waiting to be conquered. It was almost controlled by a simple RABBIT at one time." "Correction....Rabbit suit!" shouted Kali, about ready to get into his battle stance. "We are looking for warriors of your type. I invite you to join us. When my master Dark Sonic rules, beings like you who join us will be allowed a free will." "And if I oppose?" asked Kali, a stern look on his face. "Then I shall drain away your soul, and you will die in agony... or perhaps walk throughout the night forever." "Well, that gives me a simple decision" said Kali, going into his battle stance. "I see," said Kefkain. "NOW YOU DIE!!" Kefkain made a sharp lunge towards Kali, who ducked just in time. The wolf landed behind him and prepared for another pounce. This gave enough time for Kali to grab the sword behind his back and use it to block the next leaping attack. He then retorted with a slash of his sword to the white wolf's stomach area, causing a rather mediocre wound. Kefkain laughed. "This is nothing to me!" He concentrated on the spot, and much to Kali's awe, healed the wound almost immediately. The wolf lunged at him again, and this time Kali was not ready. The sharp talons of Kefkain struck Kali's shoulder and made a deep wound. Kali held his shoulder as Kefkain started to smile again. "You give up now, human scum?" asked Kefkain. "It takes a lot more than just a cut to keep me down!!" Kali yelled, taking his sword into a battle position. He prepared himself for a move he hadn't done for a while... "The doom of a planet....CRUSH PUNCH!" he yelled, slashing the sword in front of him. Underneath Kefkain, a stalagmite burst out of the ground, knocking him over but doing little damage. Kefkain's healing skills were concentrating as much as he could to heal them. The wolf creature dashed to Kali quickly and did combination of claw swipes at him, but it was no good. Kali defiantly blocked them and made another useless slash onto the white wolf. Kefkain, forcing more of his energy into his fighting, showed several small wounds. Furious, the wolf attacked with several more combos, eventually knocking Kali off guard and striking him several times. He grabbed Kali and held him in the air, and then threw him down onto the hard pavement. But luck would be with Kali as.... ....A car was heading towards them..... Kali quickly got up and ran off the side of the road. "COWARD!" Kefkain yelled, but he didn't notice the car either. The car impacted him at full force, knocking Kefkain to the other side of the road. The driver continued on, as he was drunk (why else would he be going at top speed through someone?) and went on his way. Kali got up and looked at Kefkain. At the same time, Kefkain was getting up as well. "Had enough?" Kali asked. "NEVER!" yelled Kefkain, dashing at Kali once again. Red and purple energy surrounded the dark haired man, as a Ki Blast. "AZILUKEN!" he yelled. The purple and red energy gathered into his hand and shot off a fireball full of electricity towards Kefkain. The wolf's assault was delayed as he was knocked backwards a few feet by the blast. "That sounded so fake," Kali remarked to himself. "Well, that's because the name isn't Japanese or any other language....but it sure sounds cool!" By this time, Kefkain was not amused. He lunged at Kali again, but was unsuccessful for the umpteenth time. "Ok! That's it!" yelled Kali, clearly pissed off now. "You come and invade my thoughts, threaten to kill me, and expect me to let you off? Not anymore!" The red and purple energy swelled more inside his body, causing a intense glow. "' I'MSICKOFTHISSHIT' BLAST!!" he yelled, as a narrow beam emitted from his hands. As it hit Kefkain in the chest, he screamed in pain. The blast then suddenly got wider, much like a super nova, and knocked Kefkain onto the ground... badly injured. Struggling to get up, he tried to concentrate on healing his wounds fully. It only healed the wounds from before the blast, still leaving him weak. "Grr..." stated the wolf. "I underestimated you... I should have fed more completely before this battle. Next time we meet, Kali, my immortal powers shall strike thee and I will victoriously taste your soul!" "We'll see about that," shouted Kali, still in his battle stance. "Until then.... I shall be waiting," Kefkain said. He then did another shape-shift, this time to a bat, and flew off into the distance. Kali, relieved at the battle's end, continued his walk. But he thought he would see this wolf again.... About a hour later, Kali was at the AAA tournament arena, looking at the ticket counter. He was awaiting his ticket, and hoped he would get good seats too. Finally, the ticket lady there handed him a ticket. "There you go, sir. I hope you have a wonderful time!" said the lady. Kali, taking the tickets, paid her and smiled in return for the service. He look at the ticket and saw the seat. Row 20, Seat 15. Surprisingly good for what he paid. The tournament would begin any day now. Kali looked back upon the moment of history with his scuffle against the wolf named Kefkain. He was sure this wasn't the last time that wolf would be seen.... ____________________________________________________________________________ Legal Stuff: Nerima and any references to Neo-Tokyo are owned by whoever made Ranma 1/2 and Sailor Moon.
