Re: A Tale to Last Eons, or a Death Wish? (Ranny)
OoC: Haha, I kind of lol'd at Alain getting his hand frozen to his weapon and a tree. XD
BiC: Before responding, Ceto just stared at the armored man before him. Confused and shocked at what he'd just heard, the young Centaur couldn't immediately think of a reply. Never before had he heard anything about Centaurs of the past doing such deeds, nor did he ever hear of any doing anything remotely bad at all. Ceto simply lowered his weapon and changed the expression on his face to an annoyed one as he took his attention away from the armored man. Still confused and shocked, he could only think of one thing to say.
"Oh brother, not again..." Ceto remarked, remembering the last time he had been training. It was then that the first incident dealing with an interruption in training had occured.
"Oh, so I'm not the only one to accuse you of such crimes?" the man replied. "Then I shall teach you an even bigger lesson than originally planned and the name Alain Marshall shall echo throughout my country! DIE!" With that, Alain charged at Ceto almost suddenly, trying to give the Centaur no time to prepare a counterattack.
"Hey wait, what the--!" Ceto started. He brought up Blizzaron just in time to block Alain's attack and send him to the ground. But the man wasn't going to give up that easily. He scrambled to his feet again and prepared to charge again, but this time Ceto wasn't going to allow it.
"I'm sorry, but you're forcing me to do this," he said firmly. Ceto twirled Blizzaron in his hand once and fired an Ice Blast, securing the man to a tree behind him, his wrists and ankles now encased in ice on the trunk. Enraged by now, he tried breaking free, but it was useless.
"HEY! Let me go, you monster!" he screamed. "I REFUSE TO DIE LIKE THIS!"
"Will you just shut up and listen? I will not harm you," Ceto assured. "I have absolutely no clue what you were talking ab--"
"You fiend! You LIE!" Now getting annoyed, Ceto used an Ice Beam to freeze the man's mouth shut.
"No, I do not. Neither me, nor my girlfriend, nor my herd have ever harmed a single innocent soul in our entire lives," he explained. "I do not know whether your story is true, but I do know that Centaurs of today are not evil monsters." The man didn't seem to be listening to much of it, however, as he was still struggling to break free of his icy imprisonment. Knowing it would begin to melt soon, Ceto decided to prove his claim by leaving the man alive at the tree and bidding his farewell. As he started to trot away, however, he suddenly heard a shattering noise behind him. He turned around to find Alain attempting to jump onto Ceto's back in order to strike with his unusual weapon. His mouth was still frozen shut.
"Now you leave me no choice, Ice-Mouth!" Ceto exclaimed, shaking Alain off and pointing Blizzaron at him. "You want a monster, then you've got it!"
