Bug Extermination

*huff* *puff*
Little Tamka would struggle to breath as he has been carrying Hana for quite a while. At the guild, Hana and Heero decided to go on yet another job together, in hopes that she would quickly get stronger. However, this job was a B Rank, and not only that but a demon killing bug exterminating mission, which left Hana pretty nervous. Strangely thought, she was rather excited about it as well, she just didn't know why. Maybe it as her determination to get stronger, or the fact that she got the chance to challenge and beat bigger and stronger creatures than her, which she would admittedly enjoy and make a hobby of as a child. "Tamka, are you ok? You seem a bit tired..." Hana's soft voice would worriedly ask the Ginger raccoon, to which he just noddd his head in reply. "I-im sure Lady Hana. We already allowed Heero a head start due to errands. W-we need to catch up!" Hana gave a pointed smile at her adorable little buddy, and looked on toward the horizon. "If you insist, but as soon you feel your wings are going to dissapear, rush as fast as you can towards the ground." Tamka nodded smiling at Hana's acceptance, and continued soaring, trying to find Heero. The two would continue their search before finally finding him as the sun began to set. "HEERO!" Hana shouted, knowing that she would be heard due to Heero's heightened capable of hearing. Finally, they made it, but Tamka couldn't keep up this flying, and his wings suddenly dissapeaed, causing the two to fall. Immediately, Hana shouted, "WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!" Towards Tamka and guickly embraced him so that she could take the landing. She knew she should've listened to her gut and make Tamka rest.

Rose held up one paw and looked upward at the horizon, spotting Tamka and Hana coming a mile away. She would tug on Heero's pants as this caused him too turn around and look upward.

Crossing his arms, he listened carefully to them argue. Just like he and Rose did. A sweatdrop appearing over both he and Rose's heads as they watched them fly up. As Tamka's wings disappeared, Heero casually walked up beneath Hana as she and Tamka fell into his arms. Catching her tightly, he would raise an eyebrow at her as he let the shock of not hitting the ground set in.

"Nice landing....." Heero said as he beamed his signature smile, looking down at her as he set her down. The twenty one year old looked over at the sixteen year old as he crossed his arms. "Well Hana...this is unlike anything we've ever done before." he would say as he looked up ahead, at a large mountain range ahead of them. Fortunately, he had packed a bunch of food and other snacks in his large backpack.

"This is a B-Ranked job.....against bugs from the devil himself. You can't be afraid to see your own blood here, and you can't be afraid to rip them in half." Heero stared her deep in her eyes. "You've got to learn to unleash your Dragon Rage." as he said this his eyes would turn red. Showing her a signature skill of Dragon Slayers. "When the time is right, let your anger boil over, and hate their very existence. I'm sure you hate bugs already right?" he said as his eyes would return to natural blue.

"Who DOESN'T hate bugs!" Rose said as she passed Tamka a slim jim. Heero would blink angrily wondering when she got into his backpack, but smiled.

"Let's go." he would say as he turned and began walking straight up a mountain path in the phoenix mountains, it was forest down below mostly, and rock. With rivers here and there. Although it began to get colder the higher they went towards the cave. Rose would hitch a ride on Hana's shoulder along with Tamka, Heero carrying his large backpack.

Hana had her eyes shut tightly, waiting to fall, but after a few moments of making no sort of contact with the ground,, she opened her eyes confused. When she saw that Heero had caught her, heface turned red from anger and she gave Tamka the 'I told you' look. Setting Hana down, Heero began explaining, well, rather stressing the difficulty of this job... to her anyways. "I understand, I will use my full potential." Hana couldn't argue, she was a bit shaken, but not by the bugs. She didn't like the idea of going up against a demon, why? Lets just say she had quite a run in with somebody oriented with one, and that person wasn't so nice...  the two began walking through a forest leading to the mountains,which Hana Linda enjoyed as the music nature sang to her as louder than when surrounded by people, building, a just.... civilization. As the two got closer, the temperature lowered and the music became quter, not that the temperature dropping really bothered Hana, but the music silencing did. Nothing good ever came of a silent time for her. Progressing, Tamka and Rose got and decided to hitch a ride on Hana's shouders, to which she just petted Tamka and continued. After what seemed like forever, the four finally got to the cave entrance, but not without any difficulties. Looking through the cave entrance, a soft shiver crawled up Hana's spine, the eerie amosphere not making it any better. Oh how she despised confined places such as this... "Ready when you are..."
 Hana stated before walking into the cave, a scaredy-raccoon crawing down shirt and making the young girl sigh with a sweatdrop at her adorable companion. Sniffing around, Hana quickly covered her nose, her revealed eye tearing up at the stench. "We should've  brought febreeze and bug spray...."

'Monster Dice' :

Although Hana said she was "ready when you are" Rose could sense the hesitation in her voice. As the Exceed sat with her legs crossed like a lady on Hana's shoulder; she would get a troll face.

"I've heard you sound more ready than that!" as Rose would smirk a bit, Hana's next statement actually made her chuckle. "Hey, look around! This mountain is beautiful it's not all doom and gloom right?" Rose said, although her voice was serious as usual, she smiled a bit. There were evergreen trees, wondrous cliffs, rivers flowing. The Phoenix Mountains were truly a beautiful place.

After awhile, they would come to a stream. With a log going across it. Balancing himself as he walked across, Heero, Hana, Tamka, and Rose would eventually come to a HUGE cave entrance. That had so many holes in the rock wall, it looked more like a hive.

"I....think we're here." Heero said as he dropped his backpack and began pulling snacks out, passing them out. "Bug Spray?! Ha! The job said they were some kinda...Hellish Bug Men." he said as he snacked on chips, sitting in a circle with everyone. After they snacked a bit, they went inside.

It seemed Hana was not a fan of the smell. Smiling a bit but looking somewhat serious, Heero's slayer hearing picked up something up ahead in the cave.

"Intruders! Intruders! Protect the Hive! The Hive!!!" as six giant Beetle bug men, dark orange in color leaped down from different areas of the cave. Steam coming from their bug faces. Without warning they would charge. Actually flying through the air, in all directions at them like bugs. They only had a second to react, so this could get scary.

As a loud buzzing got close, Heero would spin around and elbow one of the Bug Men in half, it's green colored blood splattering everywhere against the walls as Rose would spin forward and ReQuip a gigantic Hammer designed like the head of an Exceed, the hammer was easily ten feet tall. Way bigger than her, Heero, or even the giant Beetle Men. With a mighty swing of it, one of the bug men's bodies flew against the wall headless as it's head rolled comically down a tunnel hallway.

"HOME RUUUUUN!!! BATTER UUUUP!" as the bug men flew at her, her white wings would pop out as she would leap back and zoom around the area, ten of them following her hissing and clicking their mandibles. Like a stream through the air, she would lead them around in loops even doing a barrel roll as she flew between a few stalactites hanging from the ceiling. "Coming your way Hana!"

Rose would then fly over Hana's head, leaving the four giant Beetle Men left flying right at her in a perfect position for her to splatter or freeze them all.

Abilities & Spells Used:

Hana giggled a bit at teway Heero and Rose comically fought togethar, but was caught by surprise when Rose would fly over the girl's head, leaving four easy targets for her to take down. Taking the oppurtunity, Hana created five boomerangs made out of ice and threw them toward the beetle like creatures. Managing to hit three they began to freeze up like normal bugs would do when reacting to the cold. With the first three down, that left one more. When Hana went to take down the last one, she was soon stalled by Tamka jumping off her should and latch onto the bug demon's arm. Almost immediately a shock of electricity coursed it's way through the thing's body, electricuti the creature andcausing it to fall down finished. "Nicely done Tamka!" Hana praised  softly stroking the small raccoon's head, to which he would just nuzzle into it with a happy smile, purring like a cat. Picking Tamka up, Hana placed him back on her shoulder. "Well, that was a bit startling at first... lets continue, after all, it is pretty for a hive. I wanna explore it!" Cheering Hana put a hop into her step, her wild and anxious side now showing. The only other people who have seen this side were, Tamka, and of course, Yuki. Quite possibly her teammates as well if you count taking pictures of various flowers... "Oh great, here she goes again..." Tamka sighed, already knowing of the girl's new found excitement, and he climbed off of Hana, only to place himself on Heero's shoulde instead. He didn't want to go down with Hana after all if she were to trip from too much adrenaline. Nope, already happened once to him, never going to happen again. EVER. Saying such may be mean, but he'd rather bare the pain of flying the way back to the guild.

Spells used :

Heero watched and waited for a moment; as his adrenaline was pitched. The flying beetle men closed in on Hana. But not for long as Hana whipped up some Ice Dragon Slayer magic at incredible speeds; before the flying beetle men could hit her; they were peppered by huge ice boomerangs; as Hana whipped them through the air.

The boomerangs actually pinged off of the beetle men mid-air; as a few of them bounced off of the cave walls and then into them, confusing the bug men as most of them landed on the ground.

Several of them tumbled to the ground; completely frozen with surprised expressions in ice blocks.

'KABLOOOOOOM!'

A huge Lightning bolt would pass through five of the beetle men who were frozen solid, sending ice chunks everywhere. As Heero came sliding to a halt on the other side of the new pile of ice and snow.

"I'm All Charged Up Now!" he said as electricity began to build around him on the ground; his signature confident expression filling his face with a small grin. Lightning Aura erupted around him as golden lightning seemed to surround and coat his body, sparkling off of him every now and then.

Beetle Men flew in from all directions, as Heero leapt up with a spin kick and kicked one in half as the two parts of his body flew in opposite directions, covered in electricity. As Heero landed he would throw a punch right through the face of another, as the bug men continued to pour in all around him; more and more of them were tossed into the air around Heero like a trampoline, they were getting absolutely creamed.

"I can do this all day!" he said as he spin kicked another one through the air toward Hana. "Alley-Oop! Hana for the dunk!" he called to her as the bug man sailed toward her.

Abilities & Spells Used:

Just like Rose, Heero had actually found a way to send a bug man flying towards Hana's direction, shouting out to her as a heads up.
With a disgusted face cause by the expression of the bug demon, Hana whipped up another spell, creating an ice sword which would slice through the bug and grossing Hana out even more. Bugs weren't really a problem with her, but if it just so happened to be one the size of a man that has been cut up, yeah, she would have a problem. Hell, she didn't even think Rose's situation could be any better, let alone Tamka. The only one who seemed to enjoy sqaushing the hell out of these guys was Heero. Being lost in her thoughts, Hana hadn't realize the bug man who had now been charging at her, resulting in not much time to react. Going for a fast and easy way to deal with things, as soon as the insect-like creature reached Hana, the small girl roughly placed her hand on what she supposed was the thing's forehead. Her actions caused it to freeze, and not wasting anymore time she quickly roundhouse kicked it a good distance away, and it was rather impressive for a young girl of her size. She felt rather proud of herself but alas, there were still more bugs she had to exterminate of. On the other hand, as Heero had been roughly fighting the bug men in his area, poor little Tamka had been holding on to the blue haired man's scarf as it blew in the breeze, tears comically rushing from the small raccoon's eyes. Oh how he wished he had chosen to stick to Hana's shoulder. Shaking his small, furry head side to side, he began climbing his way back to Heero's shoulder and into his shirt. "Ah, safety at last." He sighed contently.

Spells used:

As Bug Men continued to dive on Heero from all sides, he moved so quickly that each time he did, Tamka nearly lost a grip on his scarf. As he hopped out of a final lightning bolt, a Bug Man falling down with a huge hole inside of him, sparkling with electricity. Tamka would scramble into his shirt---and let out a sigh of relief, commenting that he was safe.

"Not yet Tamka! We've got ten more bug men incoming!!! Time to use our secret technique!!!" Tamka would probably notice how Heero had called it our. Comically, Heero would gather up a huge amount of Lightning around him, surrounding both he and Tamka in his shirt in an aura of wild lightning that went so crazy it smacked the walls randomly.

"Get down Hana! Tamka and I are gonna clear this room out so we can move on to the real deep parts of the cave!" as Heero charged up a fist, he would use a variant of his Lightning Dragon's Iron Fist, powering up as he launched forward in a lightning bolt down the hallway.

"Tamka! Throw your hardest punch now!" Heero said as he and Tamka both appeared out of a Lightning Bolt, with a huge crowd of bug men in front of them.

"Tamka's Hidden Shirt Fist!!!" as Tamka launched from his shirt, he would throw whatever he considered his best punch probably; but to the racoon's surprise, a huge storm of A-Ranked lightning would erupt from his fist; the golden lightning would fill the entire path of the cave in front of them; electrifying the bug men so much that their skeletons were shown.

They would pass out, flat in front of them. Stretching out in front of them for a good distance, all smoking with Lightning.

"Heh, guess you don't know your own power Tamka!" Heero would say as he scooped the raccoon up and put him on his shoulder. He would pat him on the head twice comically as well as they continued down the path.

"Boys....such idiots." Rose would say as she sighed riding Hana's shoulder, shooting her a smile as she swished her tail back and forth.

"Let's go." with a nod, Hana, Heero, Tamka, and Rose would make their way further into the tunnels and caves, stepping over the sizzling bodies of Bug Men, some of them twitched; still knocked out from Tamka's A-Ranked Dragon Slayer wave of electricity that he'd released from his punch, courtesy of Heero.

Abilities & Spells Used:

Tamka was shocked when Heero had emphasized the our in special attack. Tamka was about to shout out in curiosity of what Heero could've possibly meant, but didn't really have the chance as Heero already began engulfing the two in an aura of powerful lighting. Hana jumped in surprise, and quickly hid behind a rock, not wanting to get caught in the small 'lighning storm' the guys had going on. Oh how painful something like that would be. Shouting out for Tamka to throw his best punch and screaming out a rather ridiculous attack name, Tamka shot from Heero's shirt, giving his all in the punch he threw towards the bug men, which wasnt that strong seeming as how he wasn't much good in physical strength. Surpisingly, a whole array of lightning shot all over the place, sending sparks of A rank electricity to course through the insects' bodies, zapping them like a high powered electric fence. Hana stared in shock, as well as Tamka as Heero placed him on his shoulder and walked on to the next area. "H-hey! Wait up!"[size=37] Hana yelled, finally snapping out of her shock and running to catch up to the two. "Boys... such idiots." Rose commented, riding on  Hana's shoulder and pointing a smile a her. Hana snickered at Rose's opinion, and shook her head in response. "Although I do like Tamka's new attack name..." leaning forward, she rose a suggestive eyebrow over to a blushing Tamka. He knew she was just kidding,  he couldn't really help it. He got red in the fur whenever attention such as this was drawn to him. Looking over, Tamka noticed something diferent about Hana's appearence. "Lady Hana... you eye patch is burnt. Uh... would you..." Tamka was going to ask Hana if she would like for him to make her a new one, but it seemed kind of embarassing for him to offer in front of others, so he changed his mind. "N-never mind... it's not a big deal... it's not damaged too much..." Hana gave a confused look over to Tamka, but continued on walking until they had finall gotten to the next area, where they were now face to face with-[/size]

'Monster Dice' :

Heero smiled at he walked alongside Hana, looking around the cave as they entered a huge area that looked like a hive. Although it didn't appear anyone was around for now. Heero chuckled to himself as Hana mentioned the new attack name.

"Yeah, maybe we should let Tamka take the next group on alone whaddya think?" Heero said making a troll face and looking to the side smiling. Rose would giggle a bit as they walked, swishing her tail on Hana's shoulder.

Suddenly, with their superhuman Slayer hearing they both would likely hear buzzing in the air as another fleet of Bug Men landed in front of them. This time however, one was at the center. His entire shell was covered in gleaming metal. He almost looked slick like water, his shell was so metallic.

"Well....human, it seems you've found our hive...a pity. Because we're going to have to take you out....." the beetle would twitch and turn it's head as it talked, with a legion of blue and orange bug men behind him. The beetle man seemed to notice their Guild Mark and then speak again. "That guild has been around since my ancestors...amazing........I'm sorry we have to be enemies now, but our hive will soon spread to the entire Phoenix Mountains. Our Father shall see to it."

The metal bug man then pointed forward, as a huge fleet of 40 bug men fanned out and charged them flying through the air. Rose would yell out to 'GO' as her wings appeared, she would ReQuip her weapon back into her hands as Heero would look over to Hana and power up his Lightning Aura once again as the area shook at this.

"Hana stay close to me, let's give em a good ol fashion ass whippin!" Heero would say, bending his knees next to Hana as he told her to follow his movements. He would leap forward through the air, punching one of them into oblivion, and then lean forward throwing another fist. Hopefully Hana did the same, he would then kick one that was approaching Hana mid-air from the side, as he would then grab ahold of her and spin her around as she could kick the hell out of all of them mid-kick, and possibly use Ice Dragon Spells as well during the team attack.

When they landed on the ground together, Heero would tell her to use her roar now as he would stomp hard on the ground to stop his movement from sliding, hopefully she could copy this as well. Inhaling at the same time as Hana, as the entire cave began to shake. The roar of two Dragon's would be heard as huge mile wide Roar that was more like a Kamehameha of Lightning and Ice actually punched a hole in the Phoenix Mountains and flew off into outer space as Heero and Hana exhaled inside the cave. With the spells classed at S and C, the roar itself would be beyond H-Rank in scale if used together.

The entire horde of Bug Men were incinerated in one hit, some of their bodies tumbled back down from who knew where, completely frozen as well. The others were nothing but ash and bones now.

Only the metal one stood, his eyes comically anime wide as he sweatdropped. Half frozen and steaming with lightning as the Metal Beetleman exploded out of the ice, angrily. Making a sword of pure poison appear in his hand, like a katana.

"Take him down alone, Hana you've got this!" Heero would say, powering down and turning off his Lightning Aura as pieces of the cave still fell down from their mighty roar, sometimes little rocks here and there. Rose would cross her arms anticipating this one on one battle.

Abilities & Spells Used:

A swarm of more bug men approached the two as they had been walking. Of it wasn't thanks to their high senses, the two really wouldnt have been able to guess-rather know-that they had been pursuing them. After a few words had been said, everybody had prepared themselves for battle. Heero insructed Hana on how they should fight, and she gave a swift nod appoval. Although Heero may not have seemed like the brightest crayon in the box, there was far more to him than what people could originally see. He acted as an ignorant child, but in reality he was a better rategist than Hana heself, and that was coming from somebody who used to practibly be an assassin. As the two fought, their movement remained in sync, bashing bug men left and right, but the two's next attack was what would cause the most damage. "Tamka get back over here!" She yelled to Tamka who had once again had his teeth burried into the arm of a bug man to which he simply just sprouted his wings and flew over to Hana, making himself comfty in her shirt. Without any other delays, the two casted their dragon's roar spells, which combined had made a much more powerful attack wing out all insect creatures with the exception of one. The metallic one. "Take him down alone, Hana you've got this!"  Although his words were still encouraging, the young mage was still nervous about this, but took a deep breath before launching her first attack. Charging at each other Hana landed a kick to the armored bug, but what struck as odd to Hana was that he hadn't even attempted to dodge. Although the ceature had been kicked into the cave wall, Hana began feeling a burning sensation in her leg. It wasn't that bad due to her cold blood, but it still hurt. 'So that's his game...' Hana thought, now understanding what had just happened and she immediately coated herself in armor-like ice. "Well human, it's surprising that you apparently figured it out quickly, but you're still a fool for not noticing sooner." Oh wow... this guy literally sounded like her dad... yup, he was going down. Silently, Hana sent a bored expression over to him, to which he just responded with an irk expression, charging his way towards the silver-headed girl. "Haha! And you're a fool for wanting my full attention." Hana retorted like  how she usually would as a child, and she landed a punch to beetlejuice's face causing it to frost up. (Lol, movie reference. I'm such a nerd XP)

Spells and abilities used :

As the battle on the bridge would rage on, Heero would keep his arms crossed; watching as dust fell from the ceiling; there was even an open hole to outdoors; from their huge roar. Frankly, the hole was huge, and casted down a huge beam of sunlight on to the giant stone bridge Hana and The Metal Bug Man were fighting on; as they traded blows, they would pass through the huge beam of sunlight every now and then on the bridge.

When Hana kicked the Metal Bug Man across the bridge, pinning him into a wall with the force of him flying through the air, Heero noticed some cracks appearing on her skin as burns around her leg; however they seemed to cool rapidly, and turn into nothing but icy smoke; her leg healing itself.

"What the?!" the Beetle Bug said as he was confused, this had never happened before; as he watched Hana's leg cool, Hana literally took a step forward and launched herself with Slayer Speed; upon him as fast as you could say "1" Hana threw a punch into his metal face that caused half of his face to actually frost up like morning grass; going flying back into the same hole in the wall; the Metal Bug Man would get pissed and come flying out of the wall; causing chunks of rock to explode behind him.

Hissing loudly, the Metal Beetle Bug would fly past Hana several times, trying to slide her apart mid-air. When that was over, he would land with a heavy metal thud and begin exhaling and spewing poision everywhere. Even Heero and Rose had to hop back a bit, although they kept their arms crossed inspecting the battle as they did so.

"Hana watch out for that stuff!"

"Didn't you see earlier, forget already? That crap can't burn Hana, no matter how acidic or hot it is....her skin is just too cool for school. Same with her blood probably." Rose would correct Heero, as he blinked a few times with a sweatdrop over his head as he watched the battle.

Hana smirked as the demon bug thing from hell hissed and began charging at her. Although Hana didn't seem like the type, she loved to mess with her "prey" before actually taking them down. It was yet another habit of hers that haven't been revealed to much people; In fact, it hadn't been revealed to anybody before now, only Yuki and the giant animals she fought when she was small....er. As the bug man charged around her in different directions, he began to spew a strange poison all around her. Heero and Rose had bickered between eachother on Hana's next moves, but the only thing that came out of it was the young girl's amusement, having already slid herself across the gound like a penguin. But alas, that poison was rather impossible to dodge seeming as how it was everywhere, thus causing an area on the left side of her mid-back to burn down til all that was shown was the scars going across the brand mark she received as a mere toddler. The skin was a bit pink from the high burn, but wasn't very affective due to Hana's gifted abilities as the ice dragon slayer. Getting into a position much like how a big cat would when stalking their prey, a playful glint passed through her sapphire blue orb, earning a weird expression from the bug man, and she would slowly give him the peace sign along with a toothy, close-eyed smile before pouncing into action. Having still had her armor she dashed toward the metallic bug man and began making various blows. First she would punch him in the stomach with dragon slayer force, causing him the hunch over in pain and the ice armor in that area shattering. Next, she would swirl around and kick in behind the demon's knees, allowing him to fall and the leg part of her armor shattering in turn; and for the finale,  elbowing him in the face sending him once again across the room, except this time he would fall off of the bridge and into the darkness below. As if nothing happened, Hana's usual, innocent facade would once again be worn, softly asking, "Do you think I was too hard on him?", and causing a messy furred Tamka to pop his head out of the silvernette's shirt and sweatdrop.

Spells and abilities used :

OOC: I was running out of moves for this guy, so since he was pretty much hit by the roar we did + getting a beating from Hana, I decided to end him here. We'll also have more spare room to fight the boss without going too much over the number for the "at least this amount of posts", if that makes sense.

Heero and Rose would look on carefully as the battle raged on, Hana was very skilled at freezing the environment and then using that to her advantage. As the Metal Bug Man spewed metal through the air, even looping back at her if she dodged, Hana used the evironment; freezing the ground and sliding on it like a Penguin even to get underneath a blast of poison, the walls, the ceiling, nothing was off limits for Hana to slide on.

"Nice moves, Hana!" Heero said, keeping his arms crossed as he watched. Apparently, some of the Poison had nicked her as she was sliding around, as Heero saw various rashes and burn marks; but they disappeared, leaving her skin perfect and smooth as it cooled from within.

Hana would then throw a peace sign with a wide Slayer smile at the Bug Man, as the Bug Man titled it's head in confusion. But then, it was over.

VA THOOOM! Hana exploded forward so fast, that wind was left swirling behind her at her old spot. With a crushing ice Haymaker to the Bug Man's stomach; the Bug Man's eyes almost popped out as ice shattered all around him in slow-mo. Even Heero and Rose's eyes were comically huge as they had no idea Hana had that kind of speed. With a spinning roundhouse to it's back knees, they buckled as it knelt with a loud metal thud.

Spinning down underneath it, Hana would deliver a rising elbow, as the Bug Man stretched out and exploded with motion off of the bridge; hissing as he froze solid mid fall, and shattering loudly after he fell into a dark abyss. All that was heard was the ice breaking after 40 seconds of falling.

"Damn that's a long way down!" Heero said as he comically put a visor over his head with his hand and looked down into the darkness that the Bug Man had fell into. "Hey, can you hear that? Something big is coming our way...." Heero had trained Hana to use her superhuman hearing as a Slayer to the brink on their various missions, by now she should be able to hear a fly buzzing in the air from across the room, or hear a bullet or arrow coming, even hearing through walls should be no problem after being Heero's apprentice since he was the strongest Dragon Slayer in the world ,with only Shuhei being close competition. Heero felt he had surpassed him as well though. Although at this rate, Hana could surpass him and Shuhei both someday.

As the wall inside the area they were in exploded, it revealed a giant slug bug Mantis, easily the size of a house; towering over them both.

"Seems you've defeated my children...amazing. Especially the metal one....that he would be defeated by.......just a girl." the giant slug mantis would turn toward Hana and stare at her with it's serpent like eyes.

Hana giggled a bit at Heero's reaction, but was rudely interrupted by the distant banging that gradually grew louder. Hana nodded her head in response to Heero's question, and the loud banging would momentarily stop before it was followed by a sudden explosion which would send rocks flying everywhere. Hana shielded herself from the flying dibris, but put her arms down when a rather booming voice began to speak. Hana cringed under the large maget's gaze, Tamka-in turn-slinking his furry head back into Hana's shirt in fear. "Uh..." Hana would trail as she hesitated to say what on her mind. But of course, as she was standing under a larger animal demon thing, she had to, and nonchalantly her voice rang out like a ringing bell. "Could I kill you know? I'm sorry.... I'm not normally this homicidal but youre a really big.... creature, and I like a challenge of the sorts. Also, you're evil, so...." From beneath her shirt,Hana could feel Tamka as he struggled to stifle his laughter. Hana didn't really mind, but the damn raccoon was tickling her and she wanted him to stop, resulting in a light punch on Tamka's head, making him see stars. Giving a content sigh of relief, Hana patiently and slowly returned to the bug king's gaze, in which she earned a weird look from from. She couldn't really blame him, she was acting a little strange and.... energetic, as if she was still a small child, being raised by Yuki. Yup, those were the days.... As Hana would continue to hear this thought brought uppon her by yours truly, her eyes would clearly show she was in a daze, a soft smile resting upon her face as she thought about the giant meals of meat Yuki would bring to feed them. Yeah, there was no way in blaming Cthulhu's land dwelling cousin.

Heero and Hana would look up at the giant....Slug Mantis thing. Heero was pretty sure it was a giant Slug Mantis. Or was it a Slug Mantis Beetle...' he would sweatdrop as he looked up at the thing in awe even though it was really ugly---he sparkled at it. At the exact moment that Hana bonked Tykva on the head causing her pet Racoon in her buxom chest to see stars and pass out, popping back down beneath.

"W-whoa! You're like......at least this tall." Heero said holding up a hand, although Baraiel was the size of several houses; and might bring the cave down just by moving.

"Insolence! I have never met two wizards so disrespectful! Unless you're from....." he noticed their guild crest like the metal bug man did, as Baraiel hissed and clicked loudly realizing they were likely Fairy Tail wizards here to slay him, and not easy prey that could be killed with one bite. "Heheheheh...Fairy Tail, you guys are still around even after thousands of years eh? Come then let us see what the next generation of Fairies can do!" apparently, this gigantic bug thing had known the previous generation, Heero wasn't surprised, as some kinds of bugs could live really long. At least that's what Zeuslogia the Thunder Dragon had taught him when he was a kid.

"Bring it!" Heero looked to his right and nodded at Hana. "Hey let's make this thing chase us....scary I know, but let's see what he can do before we go charging in."

"Wow! A plan from YOU?" Rose said, crossing her arms and swishing her tail as Heero got a pissed off mark over his head for a moment. Baraiel however, sprang into action; slithering like a snake and knocking down a few pillars on his way. He would raise one of his mantis claws, and slam the blade down at Hana, pulling forward with it, and slamming the other one at Heero.

Leaping aside with Hana, Heero noticed several skin pockets opening up on the giant bugs sides.

"Hana, kick your speed up a notch! Something's coming!" as he said this, like a thousand water hoses of Poison Liquids sprayed everywhere. Heero would kick off, as the camera showed the ground melting behind him as he even ran up on the wall to avoid it, with A-Ranked classed power at least Heero could tell, the walls smoked and sizzled as Baraiel sprayed over 100 acid streams at Heero and Hana from all around.

"Hana! Freeze the holes on his side with your Roar!" Rose called out to her, also flying around in between streams of green poison liquid. Rose was always thinking ahead, and knew Hana's roar could both cover the entire being, and cause the liquid coming out of Baraiel's holes in his abdomen to freeze on the way out or worse.

"Freeze?!" he'd say as he slashed another giant bladed claw at Hana's location before leaning back and letting out a laugh building up Magic Power. "I shall show you the meaning of the word!!!" gathering an insane amount of Magic Power, the cave became unstable again as pieces of rock began to fall. Unleashing his Frozen Nova ability; a HUGE wave even bigger than Baraiel went around him in a circle in all directions and exploded out.

As the ice storm came toward them; Heero looked to Hana and smirked, putting his hands in his pockets and stepping back as his scarf blew in the wind from the approaching Ice Storm. It would make more than a nice snack for Hana, maybe even enough for Dragon Force. But probably not that much ice. Even if it wasn't he'd powered Hana up to a whole new level.

As the ice would reach Hana and Heero, it would begin to spin like a tornado; as a sound like noodles and spaghetti was heard as it whirled into Hana's mouth. The entire A-Ranked ice storm.

"H-HOW?! ONLY DRAGONS CAN EAT ELEMENTS!!!" Baraiel shouted, as he got a bit afraid.

Hana giggled a bit at the slug beetle thing's anger and nodded at Heero's plan. Almost as quickly as she agreed, the silver haired girl began making a break for it, the adrenaline in her veins causing her to be just as fast as last time. She couldn't lie, she was excited; very much the oppasite of Takmka who was huddling in the shirt of Hana's dress. Hana didn't even need the orders from Heero seeming as how she was already pretty fast, and like Heero, she had to run up the wall, but she wouldnt be able to stay like that and soon came to a point where she had to flip off the wall and once again land on the ground. When Rose ordered Hana to release her dragon's roar, she was a bit surprised that the giant creature knew ice magic, but immediately smirked. Almost as soon as he casted that blizzard toward her it would begin to spiral, Hana slurpring it up and swallowing with a content sigh. In response to the bug king's baffled shriek, she would merely wipe her lips withher hand and in a smooth voice would calmly say, "Man, that storm you cooked up for me sure was tastey." The thing's surprise never once faltered as she put her hands over mouth in a tunnel like shape, and taking a deep breath, Hana would strongly blow the ice storm back to him, freezing him in the process and leaving Hana standing there with a smug smirk. He thought she would falter to his ice, but he thought wrong as she used it against him and freezed him over, causing fifty percent more damage than she normally would have. All in all, she was pretty proud of herself, even if it was because she used the thing's own magic against him. Was it a him? She was just assuming.

Baraiel was frozen solid as he couldn't move; his body sparkled in crystalline ice, twinkling above he and Hana like some giant dinosaur.

"Well, never thought I'd see a giant frozen bug." Heero said calmly, as he took a moment to admire Baraiel while he was frozen. Rose also looked up in silence, as Baraiel remained frozen. "Hm....I didn't think he'd be that easy to defeat, nice job Hana."

As cracks began to form in the ice, Rose would tug on Heero's pants but he would ignore her.

"I guess now we should just...leave..." Heero looked down at Rose and then up at the cracks forming in the ice as Baraiel burst outward, with a hiss that could only be described as something out of a horror movie as he flailed, spewing acid from his mouth and clickers; giant body thrashing all around as he was now enraged and no longer talking.

"Hana use your Ice Dragon's Claw from one side of his head, and I'll use my Lightning Dragon's Fist from the other, if we sandwich him right his head should explode like a damn grape! Or at the least be frozen solid and shatter.....but getting up there is gonna be dangerous, he's huge." Heero would nod to Hana making sure she was ready for something like this. "Even if I hopped out of a lightning bolt up there it would still be dangerous, so let's be careful!" he yelled over the sound of Baraiel roaring, and charging their way.

Rose would swoop past Hana and grab her flying the Dragon Slayer around and following her orders, as Baraiel unleashed poison from his sides again; spraying everywhere as he spun around like a fan, melting walls and the ground all around them. Rose flew between sprays, dodging with Hana mid-air.

Heero himself would use Lightning Dragon's Flashing Step and turn into lightning three times, as poison smacked the ground where he used to be three times in a row, as each time the bolt of yellow lightning zig zagged closer to Baraiel. Grabbing onto the giant bug from it's bottom, Heero would actually pick up the gigantic T-Rex sized beast caused all of the other Beetle Men watching the fight to go running in terror.

"Soyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Heero would shout as he threw Baraiel through a wall of the cave in slow-mo like Hercules picking up some giant monster. As the slug mantis rolled around trying to get back up like a bug on the ground, he would yell up for Hana and Rose to attack now as he ran ahead leaping through the hole made by the giant bug after it.

Abilities & Spells Used:

Hana stared on at her work. It was as if the giant bug king once big and mighty and was now just a mere prop in a museum. However, that wasnt the case. Within the free time they had, Heero compliented Hana on how she brought the fight to a "closure", earning a close-eyed smile from the short silvernette.They had begun walking away but what came forbid they do so. As giant boulders of ice came shooting from the giant beetle slug... thing..... THAT, Hana brought her arms up to cover her face in a shielding position. It was clear that Bariel was po'd beyond belief, which may or may not have meant more trouble... Hana really wasn't sure due to the fact that she was quickly getting swooped up by Rose. As Heero would do his thing to get Baraiel down and stalled, Rose would do her best spinning around to avoid the spewing acid, causing Hana to be violently swung around and start to see spirals. It wasn't until Heero shouted for the two to attack that she finally snapped out of the it and told Rose to aim for the opposite side of Baraiel's face that Heero was aiming for. Rose would bluntly comply, and the two swooped down, quickly flying for Baraiel. Within that time, Hana's arm would begin to encase itself in ice the form of a dragon's claw. At last, the two would reach their target as it still struggled to get up, and without warning, Hana landed a strong blow to his face. Everything seemed to go in slow motion for the two, the ice quickly spreading through the side of Baraiel's face causing a numbing and unpleasent feeling to go through his head. Now they just had to hope Heero had done the same.

Abilities and Spells Used::

After Baraiel got up, he was pissed. Thrashing around so much that chunks of the mountain from outside were shown exploding, as Heero had to dodge several giant pieces of ceiling. Complete with spikey ass rocks raining everywhere.

"Rose! Hana! Be careful! Let's finish this thing off!" Heero shouted as he hoped Hana remembered his plan from earlier. A two sided strike from two different elements, but only after he lost focus. Hana having been trained by Heero for 1/2 a year now was a powerful Dragon Slayer in her own right, and after this. She'd grow even more powerful. He just knew it.

Although this terrifying monster could potentially cut a person in half, this was the type of death edge training that Hana needed as a Dragon Slayer. Baraiel was the size of a house, so it was good for Hana to practice against large creatures.

Flipping to the side and off of the walls once more, Heero ran at incredible speeds, faster than any car as Lightning Aura came on around his body. He ran so fast he actually left lightning trails behind his legs as he leaped off the wall, whirling into a flip and charging up a huge amount of electricity on his arm. Rocketing forward in a Lightning Bolt colored gold, Heero would hop out of the bolt as Hana was flown by Rose in a burst of ice from the opposite side at similarly insane speeds.

Hana's fist, and Heero's fist, and Baraiel's surprised face was shown before his head exploded into ash and lightning, as the ash was actually frozen. Then, his entire body halfway down was painted over in ice as Heero and Hana would land next to each other. Heero holding out a fistbump to her as the giant Bug creature fell and shattered behind them.

A huge echo went off in the cave from it.....and then silence. Beetle Bug Men came out, but they seemed to not even be armed this time. They were in awe. Maybe Baraiel was keeping them as his minions and they disliked him.

"Well..........now that he won't bring the cave down." Heero would nod to Hana, and then nod to the Bug Men. Although they looked scary, he hoped Hana would tell them to start a new life without Baraiel. Maybe even be friends of Fairy Tail wizards again like their ancestors. He would see how she handled the situation.

Hana cheered fistbumped Heero in celeration as frozen as flutter  the air. They finally beat Baraiel, and she was very much excited. Throughout the entire thing she felt as if she was a kid again, adrenaline pumping through her veins not only giving her energy but happiness as well. She enjoyed the challenges of beating a greater being and their success rather satisfied her. As her cheering continued she would soon be interrutped by the sudden realization that more bug men had stood on the sidelines in awe. Hana didn't know whether to fight or not, and so she looked to Heero for guidance, which in turn nodded to her and then the insect like men. Silver hair swaying along and ruffling in the wind coming from outside of the giant holes, Hana nodded her head back in understanding. She would take Tamka out of her shirt and set him down next to Rose, then would slowly make her way over to them. As she did so, it seemed almost as if they were terrified. Not that she could blame them, but she had no more violent intentions for these guys. Reaching them at last, she would reach her small hand out for them, only to have them back away like a frightened animal. She wouldn't have none of this however, and she forcefully but gently grabbed hold of one's cheek and turned his head to gaze at her oceanic eye. "Hmm," she hummed in thought as she examined his own eyes. "AH... you're happy!" As confused looks crossed all of their faces, a delighted look crossed Hana's, and she proceeded to speak. "Well then, even though you are free, it's advised that you don't reveal yourself to humans... however, I believe you guys would be much happier in maybe making a little village? I did so with snowmen.. and, well, I kinda liked it... I'm not saying you absolutely must, but.... why not getting out of this dark cavern and exploring new sights?"

Heero would walk up with his arms crossed, as the bug men surrounded him. Somewhat happy to be so close to a guy who was just blowing them to shreds without feeling any danger from him.

They tugged on his clothes curiously, as Heero smiled happily as some of the bug men messed with his blue hair.

"Yea, Hana's right. This cave is way up in the Phoenix Mountains...so far from any type of civilization. Besides, you guys could always go to Seven...it's a place where humans are weird and not the other way around. Talking walking animals and bugs as normal in that country....it's bigger than Fiore too. All types of sights to see." Rose explained as she swished her tail, sweatdropping and comically ReQuipping a sword out and pointing it at a bug man who tried to touch her.

"A place where the humans are the weird ones you say?" the Bug Men would gather into a giant comical huddle causing Heero and Rose to sweatdrop.

"What do you think they'll decide...."

"Who knows...I don't speak bug."

Eventually when their huddle broke, one would step forward with a bow towards them, clicking his mouth together happily as bugs often did.

"We shall find this, nation, this country named Seven! Bug Men! To the South!" as they said this, they would charge off in a comical stampede past Heero and Hana. As Heero held a hand out toward them.

"But! Seven is too....the...........north." Heero sweatdropped as nothing but dust was left from the bugs all running out at once. "Guess we should head back to the Guild as well...."
