Re: [Power Shot] Keldar (the Demon Spawn)'s Training

OoC: Right away sir! New post coming your way!

BiC: The statues watched my every step as I walked to the temple entrance. I couldn't help but notice the craftmanship on each statue, whoever carved them must have been master of his craft. Each statue was carved from a strange white stone that shone and glowed softly in the dim light of the room.

As I approached the temple I heard a voice in my head, the voice was deep and echoed in my head. "One called Keldar, you must prove yourself worthy before entering the sacred temple. You must face defeat three of the guardian statues in order to pass."

The ground rumbled beneath my feet as three of the statues began moving toward me. The statues moved slowly, their footsteps echoing throughout the room as they walked. The statues arranged in a triangle around me and stood in a fighting stance.

The voice once again spoke in my head. "Before you stand three warriors of stone, you must defeat all of them to pass. You may pick your first opponent."

I looked at the statues and analyzed them for any visible strengths or weaknesses. Each statue was about ten feet taller than me and each looked as if it could easily kill me.

I looked at the statue to my right; it resembled a man of about fifty years and had a rough looking beard of stone. The statue wore a simple stone robe and held a large sword in its right hand.

The second statue was a large wolf. The wolf was staring at me with its teeth showing. As I looked into its stone eyes I could see the hunger and anger in this stone wolf. No mortal could have created this statue, the fur was so real looking that I was tempted to reach out and touch it, just to see if it was soft. The statue's tail wagged eagerly, the sound of the tail wagging was like a sword cutting through air.

The third and final statue was of a large bird. The wingspan of the statue was huge, easily three times my size. Each feather on the bird was different than the feather next to it and the birds talons looked like they could cut through a mountain.

"I choose the wolf." I yelled to the air, as I drew my katana.

The other statues backed away and the wolf stepped forward. I ran and jumped at the wolf in an attempt to stab the wolf from above. The wolf leaped to the right and lunged forward to bite me with its razor sharp stone teeth. I shot blasts of dark energy at the wolf; only two blasts hit the wolf in the legs. The blasts managed to break bits of stone off of the wolf and it fell over. I took this momentary lapse in balance as a chance to strike and quickly cut into the neck of the statue. The wolf shattered and turned to dust.

The man statue stepped forward and raised its sword. I dove left, narrowly avoiding the blade as it cut deep into the ground. I shot several blasts of energy at the sword and cracked it in several places. The statue pulled the sword out of the ground and swung again. I put up my blade to block the attack. Sparks flashed as the two blades ground against each other, I was out matched by the giants strength and could not hold out long against the statues strength. The cracks in the giant's blade grew larger and the sounds of the stone blade slowly cracking filled the room. The cracks in the sword eventually grew to big and the blade shattered. I jumped into the air and slashed the giants face vertically. The giant fell down and shattered.

The final statue flew at me with its talons aimed at my head. I quickly ducked and grabbed onto the underside of the bird statue. I plunged my sword into the statue and heard the bird scream as it fell to the ground. I pulled my sword out of the statue and jumped away from the bird. The statue swung its wings and I fell over from the resulting gust of wind and my katana flew out of my hands. The bird statue thrust its sharp beak at me and I had to roll out of the way to get out of the way. With the bird's beak embedded in the ground I was able to smash the hilt of my katana into the head of the statue and broke it in two. The rest of the bird shattered and turned to dust.

The voice rang in my head once more. "You have defeated the stone guardians of the temple. You may enter."

I walked over to the entrance of the temple. The door was slightly cracked and was beginning to slide open. I was breathing heavily from my fight with the statues, but that did not stop my curiosity about what the temple may hold.

OoC: There you go. I look forward to the next assignment.
