Redneck Fishing; Open, New character introduction

The forest wasn't quite as serene and calm today then it had been any other day. The sounds of explosions and splashing water echoed through it. Down at the lake a guy with a hunters' vest on was throwing little balls of light into the lake. After a few moments the water would shoot up like something had exploded beneath the surface. After one explosion, a fish was hurled into the air and landed on the ground. The guy picked it up and held it at eye level.

"Ha ha! Ya ain't so high and mighty, now are ya? No dang fish 's' eva got away from me!"

OOC: Random encounter!

IC>>>

(The explosions were loud enough to kill anything in the water, neverminding the explosive damage being down. No living thing natural to this lake would survive something like that. However...there is a questionable interest as to whether what this hunter had awoken was living or dead...or undead. All of a sudden, a spot of darkness appeared in the water, like a batch of tainted liquid. That's what it basically was; tainted water of some kind. It was in the lake-water and a part of it. It moved towards the surface quickly and seemed to flow out of it, shaping itself on top of the water. It took a fairly humanoid shape, staring at him. It did not look pleased. A creature made of water... That was different.)

"Aw, geez... What's that awful smell?"

(Seems that somebody else noticed it as well. A youth dressed in clothing that would make him blend in with the forest and ground came into view. He had silver eyes and a feral look about him...up until confusion fell on his face.)

Ray: What kind of beast is that?

OOC: Gotta love these special moments. You're outside, having fun with explosions, and suddenly you've woken up something nasty. That's a creature of my own design, a watery being called an Allip. Basically, its like a tainted elemental creature. The guy coming up behind you is an actual student, but also a unique type of werewolf.

"Aw, geez... What's that awful smell?"

"What smel-"

Wally sniffed the air a bit and caught what this new guy was smelling. He stood back up and turned to face the creature. He confirmed the smell was coming from it, and he looked at it liked it was just a guy who hadn't bathed in a week or two. The fish still flopped and gasped in his hand.

"Yeesh! I dunno what you are, but you gotta do sumtin' about that stank. Woo."

(The funny accent caught Ray a bit by surprise, but he didn't say anything about it. After all, it was no different from his feral attitude. He looked carefully into the depths of that creature, the Allip. He did not like what he saw in there. It was liquid evil. Not a corruptive element, but this darkling was surely not a creature of the pure water element either.)

Ray: I don't think he needs a bath. I think he is the bath.

(But at that moment, the Allip was not taking requests or listening either. It was rather pissed off because it had been at rest and someone had stirred up all the sediments, forcing him to wake. The creature gave off a roar like water gurgling and thrust an arm forward. When it did that, the arm became like a high-pressure water-cannon, a geyser of force to give the Redneck one helluva whallop!)

Wally stared at the creature when it gave off its "roar". Sure, the thing was strange and a bit scary, but he wasn't easily phased. He did, however, duck to the side when the creature tried to hit him. He gave a look at it that said: Why are you so mad? He tossed the fish back at, actually more like into, the creature.

"If yo' wanted the fish back, all you had to do was ask."

Ploop!

(The fish landed in the Allip's stomach area as it began to walk on top of water to get to land. The fish, to its credit, remained dead, rather than becoming empowered with necromancy and tearing ass at the fisherman. Nay, it was dissolved into fish-bones, and then nothing. The Allip apparently ate it. Ray was dumnfounded by all this. He'd never encountered a creature made of water before...and just didn't know how to handle it. His fists would go right through the thing if he attacked and none of his powers could destroy it as far as he knew. He might be able to drink it, but it would probably poison him if he did. The Allip, meanwhile, elongated its body into a shape more snake-like and slithered towards Wally with such fluid speed that a real snake would go "What the fuck?!" in passing. It seemed like the creature was gonna boa him or something.)

Wally watched the fish dissolve within the thing. Now he was a little concerned on how to deal with it. He didn't take any chances and determined it was some acid-being-thing. Seeing it change shape made him get ready for whatever this creature was going to do next. This also let him have a little faster reaction time to its snake maneuver. He jumped backwards from the creature before it could come in contact with his legs. He clenched his fists then opened it up again, revealing a glowing ball the size of baseball. He threw it at the being, and just as it got close, the ball exploded with the force of a hand grenade.

OOC: Not acidic by nature, but the core of its being will form acid for digestion.

IC>>>

(The Allip in snakey form was a little slow on the uptake. It had missed Wally's leg and then looked up to find something hurling towards it. The creature was a bit late in turning away, so the bomb struck it and KABOOM!!! The force of a grenade explosion is enough to blow up its whole body. At this point, Wally might've congratulated himself for an explosion well-done. But if he did that, then he would have to stop short, as the Allip would be seen reforming from various traces of the dark water it was made of. It gathered itself in and returned to a humanoid shape. Then, with a liquid-sounding snarl, its right arm elongated into a blade like a long katana and its left hand became a mass of claws that would crunch ribs if impacted. It was mad. Very mad.)

Ray: I don't suppose you have a bag of cement handy, do you?

OOC: Just on a point of clarification, the Allip's stength and abilities are all dependant on the flow of water in one way or another. Shape-changing, reforming, thrusting punches - all due to reshaping and re-pressuring water in different ways. However, it should be noted that it can be solid as well through the manipulation of molecules. Hence, that sword and gauntlet really work!

((OOC: Eh, thanks for info.))

Wally was a bit proud of himself for blowing up the water-being thing and was about to turn around and go away. But he stopped in mid-turn when he saw traces of black liquid start to move. He watched on particular patch of liquid and saw that the thing was "regrouping" itself. Man......

"I don't suppose you have a bag of cement handy, do you?"

"It's in ma' dorm room. Now I wish I had brought it. Hey! Why don'tcha try givin' me a hand here?"

He clenched both his fists and made two grenade-power explosion balls.

(Ray took one look at Wally and snorted a bit of a laugh.)

Ray: I'd love to help you, but your power has a better chance of doing any damage. All of my abilities are physical, which isn't very useful against water. Hmmm....

(While he began to think to himself about something, something he could try, the Allip looked fiendishly at the two energy balls Wally had. Those things were a pain. They made it go boom. The fact that the one before hadn't killed it made the Allip fear it less. So, what it did was take deliberate swings at the two balls in Wally's hands, trying to detonate them in his face at the rask of getting splattered again. Meanwhile, Ray pulled out a small whistle from his pocket and began to blow into it. No sound came out...)

"Oh. Fat load 'o' he'p you are."

The thing made a strike at his hands, but he pulled away. Wally tried to get away, but was smacked in the in the ribs. He was blown back by not only the hit from the Allip, but also the explosions of the two explosion balls. He had let go of them when hit and he hadn't set how long the fuse was for them. So they're fuse was set to explode as soon as they left his hands. The force of two grenades made him fly through the air and come crashing back down to Earth near Ray.

"Ouch. For both 'o' us."

(But Ray was concentrating while Wally was fighting and talking. In fact, he was working up a good rage, along with Lunar Siphoning whatever he could get. He just stood there for a moment, not saying a word or even looking. Finally, after Wally was blown back, he was ready. Wally would see him gritting his teeth fiercely...and a growl escaped his throat. He sounded like a wolf... Suddenly, Ray leapt and his body transformed in mid-air. He became a large brown-pelted wolf, silver eyes flaring like mad. He attacked the Allip, whose body was recovering from the shockwave of the explosion, and blew it apart with a ram. The wolf looked around, still growling. The Allip reformed again nearby, looking very pissed off. Then it became a wolf itself, matching the size and shape of Ray exactly. He growled at it. It growled back. It was going to fight him this way until it wore him down...)

Wally picked himself up off the ground and caughed up a bit of grass. He looked over at Ray and noticed the guy was grinding his teeth. Guess this guy wants a go at dis thing too... The transformation into a wolf facinated Wally, and he watched as Ray attacked the water creature. He stood back up and thought of what he should do next. The Allip looked pretty distracted by the boy, but Wally couldn't throw in a explosion sphere just yet.

(The problem with this setup was that now, the Allip was matching Ray's shape and size perfectly, which meant it had to have nearly every physical attribute he had, save for being able to withstand solid impacts without splattering all over the place. That wasn't too much of a disadvantage for the Allip, though. It was more flexible than Ray. The real wolf lunged at the fake one, thrusting claws down at it as the water-demon slid across the ground to strike at Ray's underbelly. They traded off like this several times, pouncing, slashing, biting - matching each other step for step until the Allip grew tired of maintaining the wolfish form, and jumped down at Ray in the form of a barrage of spikes. It missed, as Ray jumped back, not willing to back down from the fight, but it gathered itself in and blasted out with battering ram after battering ram of watery force from a bulbous amoeba-like mass until one of the attacks pinned him against a tree. The blast of water remained suspended there as the end of it became a crab-claw grapple Ray and the tree, keeping him in place. He howled painfully, but still struggled to break free. The Allip formed humanoid again, walking into its extended limb to absorb it into itself as it got closer to the werewolf. The grip it had seemed shaky, but maintainable. It also seemed a bit shaken up itself....or was that weakness? Could it have spent a little too much stamina fighting him?)

Wally watched the fight between the Wolf-boy and the Allip. He was impressed on how the biy dealt with this thing. But that faded into a slight sense of worry when he became pinned against the tree. It had its back to him, and he noticed a shake in the way the being moved. Kind of like the way one's arm shakes while lifting weights and they've run out of muscle endurance. It was close to the other student, but he'd attack anyway. He closed his hands against each other, then opened them, revealing two handfuls of ping-pong sized balls. They'd each be as powerful as a small firework and he through all of them at the Allip.

"Eat this!"

(The Allip was close enough to strike at Ray, neverminding its nice big crab-claw holding him fast. With a shrill watery cry, it held up its arms, forms long slicing claws from its hands, and prepared to slice him open! That was when the little explosive balls entered its system and combusted in rapid succession. The water-demon was rather surprised to find its torso and limbs popping apart from minor charges going off in its body. Its body fell apart and slumped down into a mass of squelchy liquid, the claw following suit a few seconds later. The Allip made to regroup itself and started to move towards Wally in order to take him down the dol fashioned way: engulfing. It did not get very far, though. The rage-filled wolf that was Ray pounced down on its with such force that it exploded into smaller bits of water. Ray wasn't done yet, though. He began to rake his claws into the ground and dirt ferociously, digging into the Allip's remnants until no trace could be found. The wolf, dirty and still quite angry, was not approachable. Ray's mind was never entirely standing attention in this form.)

"Ah-ha! Bet you weren't expectin' that!!"

He laughed as the Allip exploded from within because of his charges. When the thing tried to come back at him, Wally created another volley of explosion balls. Before he could throw them, the wolf-boy lunged at it. He stared as the kid raked and scratched at the ground, trying to kill whatever was left of the Allip. The balls in his hands faded away.

"Uuuuuuhhhh..... I think ya got 'im, wolfie."

(Wally seemed to be very casual around a wolf that was larger than a man, especially one that was rather pissed and very strong. Yes, very casual indeed. But how long would that last? Would it last through the fact that Ray's silver eyes were starting to view him as something to fill his belly? A wolf can get awfully hungry after a battle like that...)

Wally noticed how the wolf started to eye him like prey. He stood his ground and looked back at the wolf directly in the eye. It was sort of like staring down an animal that needed to be tamed. He created two explosion balls, each with the power of grenade again. He spoke in a steady, unwaivering voice.

"Okie, kid, I know you ain't lookin' at me like I was sum turkey dinna. Ya know what will happen if ya make a move at me."

(While the two of them continued to stare, Wally began to notice something rather unnerving about the wolf that would be Ray Devorak. His wounds were healing. Fast. He was looking less like a large and ragged wolf with a mean streak and more like a large and extremely formidable wolf with a mean streak. He had to consider something... What if he missed? If Ray attacked and he threw those balls, only to find himself with a bad aim, he was Redneck Wolf-Chow. On the other hand, there was a certain way to work with wolves. Perhaps if he stopped making himself look so damn threatening and back off?)

Okie.... That ain't gonna work in my fava.... He clearly saw how the wolf-boy was healing itself. Wally've might been able to blow it up into multiple peices, but knowing wolves, it would pounce at him faster than he can throw. So he kept the balls in his hands, but started to back off slowly. He kept a constant eye on the wolf and wouldn't turn his back until he was far enough away.

(After a minute or two of this, Ray seemed to calm down a bit. His silver eyes stopped glowing and his lupine body sat down, looking over at the explosive-ball carrying guy. He was apparently regaining a human state of mind. Then, Ray's body began to change back into what's considered normal by his standards. A minute later, he was back to being human, sitting on the ground.)

Ray: Heh. Sorry about that. That side of me is a little feral. I have wolf's blood in my veins, you see.

Wally calmed down and let his weapons fade away. He put his hands in his pockets and walked toward Ray. He crouched down in front of him.

"Yeah, I figured as much. By the way, suh, I neva got ya name."

He tipped his hat to the man.

"I'm Wallace, but ya can call meh Wally."

(Ray kinda smirk-grinned at the fellow student, definitely sensing a funny kind of guy here.)

Ray: My name's Ray, but you can call me...Ray. Sorry, but I don't even like the first name, "Raymond". Way too formal for my taste.

(He got up steadily and stretched nearly all his muscles at once, satisfied that none of them were in pain. He would've been ever so pissed off if fighting that water demon had gotten him more-permanently soore over something. That reminded him...)

Ray: So...what did you do to annoy that water creature?

"Very nice to meet ya, Mr. Ray."

That was just him being polite, because he was brought up that way. Although he probably wouldn't call him "Mr.Ray" too much.

(Okay, he was seeing it now. He could see why that monster had attack alright. It probably didn't like gettting its habitat bomb, or getting the fish thrown at it, though it looked more like the fish had...fed it. And maybe, JUST MAYBE, it didn't like anything about Wally in general.)

(Did he think he was annoying? Well...not exactly. It wasn't EXACTLY that he thought of him as annoying. However, on a scale of 1 to 10, Wally's voice was a natural 10 at being loud without trying. That was certainly registering on Ray's ears at the moment. And certainly, his attitude lacked in something that...he wasn't sure what to call at the moment.)

Ray: I don't know for sure, really. All I know is that you seemed to bother that monster. I'm not gonna make any assumptions about how you are with other people, though, so don't ask me to.

Wally crossed his arms over his chest and a smirk came across his face. He always liked to see how people thought of him. Playing mind games, of a sort, was also a fairly fun thing to do.

(Ray thought about this for a little while, thinking of the best way to put this. The situation called for an answer that was short and to the point, yet carrying a fair head of meaning that could be interpretted well. He also considered bullshitting the guy, but that wasn't in his character. Finally, he had an answer.)

Ray: I still think that I don't actually know you well enough to judge, but I will say that you lob a good bomb. Good bye.

(He basically said the adios with a wry smile and loped off wolfishly, not really giving Wally an answer that went one way or the other. Even the bomb comment was neutral, considering that it started and solved problems.)
