Dark Ononi

The Mishhuvurthyar saw their movements, and swept low, and fired with great accuracy at the legs of the Seelie. They didn't want to kill them, they wanted to take them and to torture them, that was the only thing to do to one who had injured, and embarassed, a Mishhuvurthyar so.
 
As Ito walked behind Cio he got the horrible feeling that he was being watched again, however he could not see anything through the trees. Until something shot right under his foot, the blast would have hit him square on the foot had it not been for a wet stone which he slipped on causing him to double step with the same foot once. Although the blast had not directly hit his foot it was enough to cause him to topple over and grab his foot with some pain but it was manageable, "Cio, he wailed, I have been shot, go get help and don't argue. Hurry!"
 
Cio heard the blast, he spun round and drew his sword at Ito, thinking that Ito had shot at him, but soon realized that it was really a Mishu. He was ready for the blast coming and just managed to dodge it, rolling along the floor, "Shut the hell up Ito, I 'aint leavin' you, you get up an' run with me or we fight together!"
 
"I cant you fool, i have been hit...my foot it hurts so much" Ito bellowed even though form Cio's angle it was clear he was unharmed, If the monsters would only get a little closer, he could shot them before they even know he had the gun.
 
"Ha! you really think I am going to leave you, I will stand and fight!"

Cio looked towards the Mishu and drew his other sword, Cio's eyes were blazing with a fire deeper than hell, he pointed his sword at the Mishu, his anger making him breathe deeply, "COWARDS! You think you can sneak around and shoot like that, you have no honour, prepare to DIE! ARRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Cio creamed the last part and ran at a tree leaping high up into the air he raised his sword, ready to strike and prepared him self for what was an impossible battle to win.
 
Ito lay there on the ground, ad watched Cio go, he had the worst timing ever if he had waited andd the monsters had gotten just a little closer he could not miss hitting them with the weapon, oh well, he would have to give up on his fool proof plan to save Cio's arse. Ito whipped the weapon out from behind his back and caught it in both hands, he then aimed for a second hoping that that moron had distracted the monster, and pulled back on the button hard. Firing the weapon striaght at the mushi to the lefts torso.
 
One of the Mishu fired at the form of Cio flying through the air, firing at his legs, confident in their ability to survive an attack by a sword.

The Mishu saw Ito aiming, and began to move out the way, the blast only catching some of its tentacles. This naturally annoyed it somewhat, and it began to fire its weapon with surgical precision at Ito's limbs.
 
As Ito ispected the monster had moved out of the way of the torso hit, which did bother Ito because he was already moving through the trees toward the trees. When he got to the safety of the trees, he rapidly moved towards the monster darting left and right, making it extreme hard for any what to be marks man. "shit" Ito screamed as the monsters shot hit the tree next to him, and it began to fall towards him but luckily he just managed to jump clear. As the tree hit the ground, it knocked dust into the air, forming a dust shield. In one swift movement Ito next jumped over a tree clear above the4 dust shield from where he shot at the two monster, before dissappearing into the cloud and contiuing to run out the monsters.
 
Cio saw the Mishu aim at him and grabbed hold of a branch and swung himself high above the Mishu and landed in the top of a tree, he darted around silently to make sure the Mishu did not know his position then came around and conceled him self, waiting for the opportune moment when the Mishu was vunerable to strike.
 
The Mishu did not rely just on their eyes to sense their prey, and neither where they stupid. They easily tracked Ito through his actions in the dust, using their ability to see infra-red and continued to fire at him, confident that he would be hit. The Mishu also where more than capable of following a moving target with their eyes, and so despite Cio's acrobatics he did not manage to conceal himself all that well, given the Mishu's far superior sensors, and ability to see his body heat. It simply continued to fire at both of them, while rising above the canopy. Through watching Ito's movements they could pretty much ensure they wouldn't get hit with his rather inaccurate blasts, due to his inexperience with the weapon.

Ito dived out of the way of the monster attacks but only just in time leaving the back of his trouser badly ripped, realising that the monsters ability to predict his moves was improving. Changing his tactics Ito stopped dead in his tracks, took aim and pulled the trigger as fast as he could at the monsters firing blast after blast straight at the creature.

Cio saw the Mishu swing his gun at him and jumped high into the air, he pulled some Seelie army standard issue throwing stars out of his belt and expertly chucked them down so fast it was almost like it was raining Shurikens. Cio landed on a branch and jumped up again, spinning round and chucking his last ones and the Mishu's hand, hoping that at least one might knock the weapon out of its tentacle.

The Shuriken came down like rain, and much like rain they fell upon the Mishhuvurthyars head, rebounding off without dealing anything more than the slightest of superficial damage. In response it continued firing at Cio, harassing him with shots rather than trying to hit.

Ito's tactic was somewhat more effective, and one of his stray shots caught the Mishhuvurthyars body, burning it through to the core. Its body dropped to the floor.

Now the Mishhuvurthyars plans came to fruition. They had not been confident in their ability to capture the Seelie without killing them, and as of such these two had just been a distraction. The true threat was above the trees, a Mishhuvurthyar armed with a scalar weapon, on a area effect setting, who bathed the entire area with scalar radiation, knocking out their nervous systems, and rendering them unconcious.
 
The General watched Ito and Cio run off into the forest carrying one of the seven oil bombs, over their shoulder, no less and shouted after them to came back but they were too far away to hear him or at least that's the way it seemed. He was worried about them, he had only met them a few hours ago but already they were putting his whole black ops army to shame. Not only did they go to sleep the later and rise the earlier, than he troops but they had spent almost no time at camp at all and when they returned from the forest they were covered in injures from unseen battles.

The General was distracted by his second in command coming over and asking him for orders, the General paused for a moment and then decided that if two new recruits beat him to victory he would never live it down, not that he minded who won on his side as long as there was a victory. "Right ******, I need you to round up the troops, sort out the camp and then assemble them ready to move in thirty minutes.â€
 
One of the two Mishhuvurthyars was already down, the Scalar blast affecting it nearly as much as the Seelie. The other one was caught in the shower of flame, but it had relatively little effect. The fact that it was scattered over a large area meant that relatively little of it fell on the creature, certainly not enough to harm it. It did annoy it though, as it began attacking the Seelie with its weapon, and within only a few seconds, the four Seelie in the trees had fallen from them, dead.
 
As the fire rained down on the alien, the Seelie force opened a bag of Corde nuts, attaching them to stick and cooking them around the burning corpse of the beast. "lucky the general was around or else we could have been in trouble", one Seelie said to the group making them laugh.

Meanwhile the General arrived back at camp, where the other groups had began too reform. According to the group leader there had been many other similar attacks on Monsters or from monster but there had been fatalities on either side. "well better to loss no men on even side then lose is that I say, Anyway I managed to bag two of them for the rest of you" he joked with the groups leaders and headed to the medical tent.

Arriving at the tent he saw Ito was moving, although not full conscious. It was a good sign. Calling over the head doctor, "what is Ito's and Cio's condition?", The doctor turned to him and gave him and warm smile, "Well they will both live, Ito should be conscious within the hour. However Cio is a different story, he got badly burnt in the fire and could take a long while before he is battle ready, but I believe he will be conscious in a few hours, maybe tomorrow morning". Nodding the General turned to leave, saying over his shoulder, "Good work".
 
Ito eye's flicked open, the room is fuzzy. He remembered a beast flying over head and blocking out the sun and then nothing. Ito lost consciousness.

Hours past, but in Ito's head the only a second of the memory past. The beast raised its weapon, pointing it straight at him and fired. He remembered falling and hitting the ground, a second past as he waited for death, steering across at Cio, he had his eyes closed ,‘he must already be died' Ito remembered thinking. Suddenly flames rained down from above, he wanted to move but he could not.

He sat blot upright in the medical bed and screamed, throwing his legs out of bed and tried to run but his legs would not support him, as he fall his scream faded and the world lost cohesion once more, the last thing he felt as he fell was someone's arms grabbing his waist and lifted.

Ito eye's opened and at last the world started to come back into focus. He was in a tent of some sort and there was noise all around him, as his eye focused a little more he saw some was sitting next to him, "Cio?â€
 
The great Mishhuvurthyar descended down to the surface of the planet, in the centre of the plains outside the great forest. The huge mass settled on the ground, and Mishhuvurthyar flew out, exploring the area again. They had not been thorough enough in their first search, and now where looking to kill any Seelie they found. The idea these primative creatures where killing Mishhuvurthyar offended them greatly, and offence was to be answered by massive destruction.
 
Ito awoke to a huge thundering sound, "What the hell?" Ito shouted looking at the General anxiously. Ito jumped out of the tree and drew his weapon, then spinning around to face the noise. Overhead the huge Mountain like craft that had awoken yesterday morning, had once again began to descend the sun, which had just risen, shimmered over its skin. "Oh shit! We need to move now and find the others," he became to ran as fast as he could, then seeing that the General had not moved "NOW".

The General began to run after Ito in search of the other two but suddenly saw hundreds of monsters flying towards the forest, "There is no time, we have to move now!" he screamed. Ito turning to ask why also saw the approaching monsters. Turning Ito and the General dived into a deep ditch and began to open fire the first of the monsters they saw.
