'I have a plan' Ruby blurted out when Kanda approached her from the out of the bushes. 'This isn't going to end well' Kanda muttered while still running towards her. He then saw her eyes turn towards the people behind him and shouting
"Mr. Layton, would you be able to bury some of those explosive hats under the mud here? At the edges I think it's pretty deep," "Kanda, you and I will act as decoys for whatever that thing is using our speed,"
'Decoys ? we don't even know what this thing is. With the luck we're having we run into something resembling a level4 Akuma in there' Kanda thought calmly while he turned around and took position right next to Ruby preparing himself for what is to come.
'Ready ? Then let's go act as bait' The young warrior said full of energy and enthusiasm, looking Kanda in his eyes with the same smile she puts on right before she does something dangerous. a second later she runs towards the bushes which hid the source of the incredible loud roars. 'well she has allot of courage i give her that' Kanda thought as he saw Ruby dash towards the bushes. While quickly following her the grin on his face slowly disappeared and his eyes got a certain glare. A focused glare, ready to go to war. All of his senses were sharp, his eyes were scanning for anything out of the ordinary. His nose smelled the fresh air coming from the forest, the skin of his face feeling the damp air. All of his sense were in sync and ready for what was to come. He leaped into the same bush as he saw Ruby disappear into.
Leaping into the forest he ran several meters before the forest became more dense and more difficult to maneuver. He looked around searching for Ruby who seemed to have vanished. He slowed down a little before coming to a complete stop. It was quiet, no roar, no Ruby. Kanda felt his heartbeat picking up, the tension was unbearable. All of a sudden he heard Ruby yell 'On your right' followed by an even louder roar and immediately reacted by back stepping a meter to give Ruby space to pass him. Pass him she did, full speed, a focused gaze and a happy smile on her face. 'is she actually enjoying herself'? flew through Kanda's head. In that split second of lost focus he was too late to spot and properly dodge the large brown tail that swept towards him. Kanda still attempted to dodge but was caught off balance and was thrown against the tree behind him.
Kanda shook his head before quickly trying to get up. 'Are you alright'? A worried voice asked him. Ruby stood in front of him offering him a hand getting up. 'Yes, I'm fine. This damn jungle is slippery' he claimed in a sly lie in order to protect his ego. His hand grabbed Ruby's and she helped him up. His dark outfit didn't look as clean anymore. Ruby obviously noticed as her eyes looked towards it clearly enjoying the fact.' Thank you, where is the beast ?' Kanda asked when getting up. Ruby looked him in the eyes as if she forgot for a moment that there was indeed a monster after them 'It was right behind m-'. Before she finished the trees on their left snapped as they both saw a large set of teeth being trusted towards them. Luckily both of them had the speed and agility to jump backwards, Ruby immediately turned around and started running again, Kanda used the trees to his advantage and jumped in the nearest tree, hopped to the next only to land near where Ruby was going to run. He landed and started to run alongside Ruby, offering her a respectful nod and smile before pushing his running limits. 'Mr. Layton better be ready' Kanda said as they ran back towards the open mud field.
Ruby picked up the pace and ran through the bushes first. From behind the bushes ahead Kanda heard Mr. Layton yell towards Ruby 'Ruby ! The Bombs !'. Not long after Kanda himself rushed through the bushes 'Kanda, over here' he heard her shout. Noticing the rough mud mounds he gracefully jumped over them and ran as quickly as he could towards them. Mr. Layton and Quill built a fine little shelter in the few minutes Ruby and him were away. Without a second to waste Kanda got behind the shelter and readied himself with the others. 'Let's hope this works' Kanda whispered.
The trees near the bushes that the two speedsters came out of now cracked, another loud roar was let out as a large scaly brown creature came barging through the forest. Walking on two feet, two small claws and an arsenal of sharp teeth the creature looked dangerous and savage. Kanda had never seen a creature like this. It wasn't an akuma but damn near as dangerous as one. The large creature approached them not knowing Mr.Layton hat bombs were strategically placed. A second step of the creature was enough to cause a large explosion at the feet of the predator. It let out a painfully loud roar as it lost its balance because of its wounded leg. Mr. Laytons bombs were very effective. As the beast fell over Kanda turned to Ruby 'We've got to finish this quickly, aim for it's head'. It were exactly the words Ruby was hoping to hear. She took her large weapon and started to take aim. Kanda then leaped into the air with all his strength, making him go high up in the air. Whilst moving upwards he drew his sword and runs his index and middle finger along the back of the katana blade to activate it, whilst saying Mugen Unsheathe, Innocence Activate. The sword got a silver glow alongside it's sharp edge. Kanda reached the highpoint of his jump then moved his sword that he was holding in his right hand towards his left side. He made a horizontal slicing attack in the air, seemingly striking nothing but air yet the silver glow created a wormlike creature covered in bone armor that charged at full speed towards their attacker. Ruby fired her shots at the same time.
Both attacks hit their target and a final less louder roar was heard before the rest of its body stopped moving. Kanda landed safely next to ruby again and sheathed his sword. He looked obviously pleased with the other two 'Well done both of you'. Ruby seemed pleased to hear it and smiled towards Kanda before turning to see what their other companion was doing . Mr. Layton walked towards the creature 'This creature, i wonder what it is' he said out loud. Both Kanda and Ruby came in for a closer look as well. "whatever it is, it probably won't come after us anymore' Kanda said.
'That....was a dinosaur, shamans tend to summon them to wander around these parts.' a strange voice said from behind. The trio turned around and saw another strange creature standing by the trees on the other side of the small field. It was a 3 foot rat like creature. All three of them stood there in silence looking at the creature ' What ? was it something i said ?' The creature said. It was of course Ruby that went over to her first ' Hi I'm Ruby, what are you doing here ?' she said cheerful as ever. 'Hello, i'm Matilda Waltz, I'm a nurse from Ambrosia. Me and my group came here to treat some injured hiker when i heard this ruckus.' Both Kanda and Mr.Layton walked towards the newcomer and Ruby started to introduce them. 'The one with the hat is Mr.Layton, and the one with the sword is Kanda, and the other one is- euh.... where is Quill ?' Ruby asked. Kanda turned around but Quill was nowhere to be seen.
"Mr. Layton, would you be able to bury some of those explosive hats under the mud here? At the edges I think it's pretty deep," "Kanda, you and I will act as decoys for whatever that thing is using our speed,"
'Decoys ? we don't even know what this thing is. With the luck we're having we run into something resembling a level4 Akuma in there' Kanda thought calmly while he turned around and took position right next to Ruby preparing himself for what is to come.
