Only a few seconds passed before Abura closed the gap between himself and Kazuki.
“Get back here!”
Kazuki knew Abura was fast and he knew he would catch up but he thought he could have gained a bit more distance. The chase had just begun and Kazuki was already pumping himself full of ki but Abura was near his back and was only an arms-length away. Kazuki knew though that he would never surpass Abura in terms of speed but that did not mean he would be caught so easily.
Abura reached out a hand, aiming to snatch Kazuki up by the back of his collar. Kazuki stomped the ground beneath him and pivoted slightly. His body turned sharply and he changed direction on the spot. Abura’s hand went right over Kazuki’s head as Kazuki was already running in a completely different direction.
Abura thought he had him but when Kazuki changed directions he was of course angered.
“If that’s all you can do, your fat ass will never catch me.”
Abura’s eyes filled with rage and he turned and chased Kazuki.
Once again Kazuki changed directions just in time and raced off in another direction.
“Stay still and let me catch you!”
Kazuki smirked and began to flash several ancient hand symbols. His hands blurred as though he were a ninja. Abura came upon him again and grabbed at his back. Kazuki jumped into the air doing a backflip over Abura. Abura thought this was stupid. He knew Kazuki couldn’t fly so him leaping in the air was like he was giving up. To dodge in the air without mobility was almost impossible. There was nothing one could grab or kick off from, leaving a non-flyer vulnerable.
Abura opened his arms and prepared to catch Kazuki and break a few of his bones with a squeeze while he was at it but then Kazuki’s hands stopped moving and he roared within his mind.
(Solar Flare!)
An orb of light entered Abura’s vision and burned bright like a sun. Brighter and brighter until it was the only thing Abura saw.
Abura’s eyes were filled with nothing but white and he froze in the sky, gripping his face in pain.
“It burns!”
Now that everything was on the line and his identity was out there, he decided there was no longer any need to hold anything back. Using the ancient hand symbols to create a solar flare was easy enough but it was nowhere near as strong as Kimi’s. Still, it was plenty to temporarily blind one person.
Kazuki landed behind Abura and kicked off the ground once more. Jumping into the air, he landed on Abura’s large back and wrapped his arms around Abura’s big fat head and put him in a chokehold. Abura was terrified and began to panic. His first instinct was to fly high away and that’s what he did. Abura began to ascend high into the sky with Kazuki on his back.
Kazuki didn’t think about the ground disappearing beneath him and increased his strength around Abura’s neck. Even with all his strength though he found it difficult. Abura’s neck was thick and his body was dense and tough. Even using both of his arms, Kazuki could barely connect them together and only managed to grab onto both of his forearms. This made his chokehold sloppy at best.
Abura didn’t know any of this and only felt himself being deprived of air. Veins bulged out from his neck and his face began to change color due to lack of air. He tried to reach behind him and pull Kazuki off but because of his size, his fat arms couldn’t reach Kazuki. Snot fell from his nose and spittle flew everywhere. Finally, Abura reached behind him and grabbed Kazuki’s head and began to push him away. Kazuki had to use all the muscles in his arms to keep a grip on Abura but it wasn’t enough.
His hands began to slip. Kazuki’s eyes filled with determination and he dug his nails into his own forearms to get a better hold. This still wasn’t enough. With another push from Abura, Kazuki’s grip loosened and his nails drug across his own forearms, tearing up his flesh. Kazuki’s grip fell away and Abura inhaled deeply.
*PAHHHH*
He then grabbed Kazuki’s arm in fury and bit down hard on his arm.
*Chomp*
Kazuki winced in pain. With his free hand, he started to punch Abura in the back of the head repeatedly to get him to release his arm. Every blow he swung harder and harder until his knuckles started to bleed.
“You damn ogre freak, what the hell is your skull made of.”
Kazuki continued to punch away but Abura wouldn’t budge and even increased the strength of his bite, digging his teeth even deeper into Kazuki’s arm. Kazuki’s fist was a blur as he struck down faster and faster.
“RELEASE ME YOU FUCK!”
Kazuki changed up his tactic and punched the same spot repeatedly until he heard a low..*Crack*
A bit of blood started spilling out from the back of Abura’s head and Kazuki felt his arm loosen slightly. Just as he was about to try and pull his arm away, Abura suddenly bit down even harder. With a flex and turn of his neck, he ripped a large chunk of flesh from Kazuki’s arm and swallowed it down.
Blood sprayed all over and rained down. Kazuki was in so much pain and so angered by this fat beast that he momentarily lost his shit. The fingers on his left hand dug into Abura’s left eye and tore it out in one go. His body may be tough but his organs were still soft and weak.
Abura screamed and flew around directionless like a buzzing fly but Kazuki wasn’t finished. In his haze of anger, Kazuki bit down on Abura’s right ear and tore it off. He chewed it several times before he spit it out on the ground below.
“AHHHHHH!”
Abura screamed in pain and didn’t know what to do.
“Yes scream louder bitch. You like to go around eating people. Tell me, how does it feel when you are the one being devoured?”
Kazuki said nothing else and bit into Abura’s cheek before tearing more of his flesh away with his teeth. As he did that, Abura opened his mouth to scream more. It was at this time that Kazuki spit the piece of cheek out into his hand and threw it into Abura’s open mouth. As soon as the fatty flesh touched his tongue, Abura knew right away it was his own flesh. His eyes filled with tears and he chewed it as though it were a delicious treat. The freak.
Kazuki took this opportunity to reapply his chokehold. This time he got a better grip and sunk his arms in tightly. He could still only wrap around Abura’s neck with his forearms but he found a disturbing way to hold him in place. Kazuki fell a shredding pain as he reached into his open wound where Abura had torn flesh from his forearm. Digging around the muscle in his wound, Kazuki grasped his bone and gripped it like a vice. The pain he felt was extraordinary but the maddening in his mind made everything fuzzy.
Squeezing his grip around Abura’s neck, he felt the air loosen from the fat ogre’s lungs. Abura struggled like before and pushed away at Kazuki’s head, Kazuki bit off two of his fingers in return. Abura was now in full panic mode. If he tried to push Kazuki away, then he would lose fingers but if he didn’t he wouldn’t be able to breathe.
Abura tried again but Kazuki bit off one of Abura’s thumbs. The pain mixed with his lack of oxygen and the panic all combined for the result Kazuki wanted. After he spit out Abura’s thumb, he felt the body in his arms go limp. He couldn’t see Abura’s face though and didn’t know if this was a trick or not and held his grip tight. Quickly enough though he knew. Not even a second later, Abura began to fall out of the sky.
Kazuki felt the weightlessness but still refused to loosen his grip for even a moment and the two fell. All the fighting had brought them a little closer to the ground, still, they were about 300 feet up. Kazuki’s head cleared as the cold air rushed past his face and whistled in his ears. Seeing the ground come ever closer, there wasn’t a lot he could do and right now he felt tired. The fight with Abura had only lasted a few minutes but he had put all of his strength into holding Abura as well as resisting Abura with all his strength to not be pushed away.
Kazuki wanted to try something, he really did, but it was already too late.
*Bam*
The two crashed into the ground or rather ice. It seems they had ended up above a frozen lake. The lake was entirely frozen but only by about an inch. Had it been thicker, the two might really have died on impact. The ice gave way and the two plunged into the freezing waters. As the ice crashed around violently, the water churned for a bit. This lasted for a minute or two until all of the ice resettled and a calm returned to the lake………..
*Puaaaah!*
Kazuki’s head emerged from the waters and he inhaled deeply as he gasped for breath. Slowly he dragged his cold wet body onto the ice and rolled over onto his back. He felt like he could barely move. The impact had been more severe then he thought. Even with Abura taking most of the damage, plenty of it still traveled into his body leaving him feeling wrecked. He felt a few bones were broken and his arm was still bleeding pretty bad but besides that he was alive.
*Blub blub blub*
Kazuki heard something and saw something from the corner of his eye where he had just crawled out from. Abura’s fat body floated up like a buoy. The turd ball had actually managed to stay intact and the noise from a second ago was him spitting up water. Abura truly was tough and had somehow survived.
Kazuki observed him closely; thankfully, Abura was still unconscious.
(Finally, he’ll be out for a while…I hope.)
