The frozen wastes of Drum Island's tundra looked bleak. It was all the same. White snow on white snow on white snow on white snow. Too long out here and one would go insane. To be stranded out here in the icy lands, far from civilisation would be the end of many. But some are more resilient. Some even take shelter here. Some make this place their home, safe from pursuit of any poor souls they plunder. This place, out here on the most mundane of landscapes is the home of a wandering pirate crew. They pillage the nearby villagers, who in truth have no way to protect themselves. It is a shame that no one protects them. Until now....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Well isn't this the most happy place."
A sarcastic voice echoed throughout the empty tundra. He stood out amongst the bland white landscape. He wore a brown leather jacket with a white shirt underneath. He should be freezing cold.
He's not.
Warmed by the pure evil in his heart, this man traversed the terrible icy wastes of Drum Island. From the ladies' perspective, he's God's gift to women, but from the mens' he's a monster sent from hell. In fact, his epithet is "Monster" he is renowned for his stark crimes against humanity.
Desmond Minus was looking for a cheap kill and some food. He didn't mind that he was essentially an outcast, all he wanted was a meal.
There.
It moved again.
He wasn't seeing things, he was sure of it. A small black dot was going in circles around him. Other than that the place was still. Not a mouse stirred. So why would his eyes lie to him now?
Again.
Closer this time.
It was gathering confidence. If he wasn't mistaken, he thought there were at least 8 of them now. The dot had found friends. They danced around the plain horizon like cinders on a fire.
A bark.
Wolves.
"So they come to play." said Desmond aloud. He gripped his pudao, Dark Destiny, and prepared to fight.
They came at him in a mass of claws, teeth and fur. The combined strength of the wolves was no match for Desmond however. He pushed them off and drew his weapon. Immediately the pudao started to heat up. In this weapon it was at half capacity, only reaching 400 degrees. It was still hot enough to melt the snow beneath it though, and the wolves backed off in fear.
But Desmond wanted retribution.
"Kyūsokuna tenpoasaruto!"
He jabbed at one wolf with precision and power, puncturing its lungs and piercing its heart with lightning speed. The wolf was dead before it even had time to register the movement of the weapon. Desmond moved on, slaughtering wolf after wolf. Their howls filled the silent air. It took only a minute, but to him it seemed a lifetime.
"This is so much fun!"
He now had the food he needed. He picked up the first wolf he killed, leaving the others for scraps, and set about making a fire.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, a certain rambunctious man was drinking in a bar.
"One more!"
"NO! You've had enough! Pay!"
He was drinking off of someone else's tab. He would have been fine if the man who had been so kind to him hadn't demanded his money. His eyes narrowed in irritation. The other man sensed a power emanating from the guy in front of him. He backed off in fear, but it was too late. "The Oncoming Storm" had been provoked, and now it would wreak havoc on everything around it.
"I'm s-s-sorry, you don't have to pa-"
He was cut off. The man before him had drawn a dagger, and had seemed to inch it forward. He didn't even touch his victim, but the man had been blown out of the bar, propelled by an odd gust. It actually blew a hole in the wall of the bar, and the cold air from outside came in. The man who had caused the damage looked around, unperturbed. He swiveled on his chair to face his drink, and took a long sip. No one disturbed him. At least, for now.
That tranquility was shattered after a long pause. The pirates around him rushed to combat the new threat, in revenge for their friend and also to increase their own fame.
Bad choice.
The man swiveled round again and expertly parried all of the strikes from the numerous swords.
"Piss off!" he shouted.
He slashed throat after throat, a horrific slaughter that forced the bar owner into hiding. The blood would forever stain the bar. He repeated his earlier move, blasting hole after hole in the bar. The building couldn't take much more, and the ceiling started to come down. The man who had started this simply blasted any falling debris that came his way, and remained safe. There was nothing around but dead bodies and rubble. The storm had passed though, and nearby civilians were now safe.
Eric Tempest walked out of the wreckage, and sought out another pub.
