All sorts of shouts and screams came from below, nearly muffled by the crackling from the burning fires, though he did make sure all the spots were safe and deserted. These fires were nothing more than to flush out a certain target; assuming this person was even here to begin with and riling things up as an added bonus.
Head resting on his raised knee as he scoured the streets while bouncing his left foot against the building, but nearly ten minutes of searching with no result. A heavy sigh spilled from his mouth followed by an aggravated sigh.'Ugh...seems I might of wasted my time com- is that...singing?'lifting his head in confusion and rubbed at his ear to be sure of what he was hearing.'Is that..let it go? Odd choice of song and timing, though considering the situation I guess its..fitting?'Scratching at his chin to ponder this; thoughts cut short from the sudden explosion caused at the docks that set off a weak quake throughout the island.'Wait...'Counting the fires around him then looked towards the docks which were on the opposite side of the island.'Uh..ok that one was not me so no one can pin that on me.'Holding up his arms while shaking his head.
Deciding it was best to get down from her to avoid being spotted and accused of that one and hopped up onto his feet. Behind, the sudden crash of something huge wracked the building that nearly made The Doctor lose his balance.'Was that a cannonball?..unlikely as the marines wouldn't fire yet so..'Leaning back from the edge when a bone chilling growl reverberated in the air like a loud boom.'Ooook..no that sounds much..much worse.'A bead of sweat formed on his forehead as he snapped his fingers.'If I don't turn around then maybe it'll go away..yeah that should work.'He had seen several times in books how the moment the hero/heroine turned around that things turned real and were attacked; simply he wouldn't and just stood there trying to whistle, but his lips just sputtered and spat.
The spine chilling, goose bump forming, ear racking, blood freezing growl persisted and even drew closer.*....crap*Resigned that the thing wasn't leaving and hesitantly turned just as a monstrous shadow loomed over him.
Eyes bulged out through the shades after seeing the massive, bear sized wolf growling at him with rows of sharp teeth bared. A great hulking predator covered with bristling black fur where multiple battle scars were hidden, but it was those piercing dark red eyes, seemingly glowing from the sunlight glinting that showed off a vicious gaze of death. Its long, blade sharp claws digging into the cracked roof as its spiky tail swished side to side while even from halfway across the roof, its hot breath reeking of blood and rotten meat could be felt.
All The Doctor could do was gulp at the sight of this encroaching behemoth.*Oh..brilliant...absolutely fucking brilliant. Of all things and I go attracting one of Fenir's wolves!*He nearly screamed to himself in his head.
A single step forward nearly made the roof shake from both its sheer weight and overwhelming power, the growling a deafening threat to let him know it planned to hunt him.'Wait! just Wait!'Holding his arms out as he called out, which made the bulking wolf stop to tilt its head in confusion.'Just..let me work something out real fast ok?'Letting out a nervous chuckle; raising a hand to poke at the air, muttering to himself at first.
'Let's see...this wolf has
-A body the size of a bear
-Teeth and claws big or possibly bigger than my arm
-likely immense strength
-Incredibly enhanced sense of smell and hearing
-very powerful legs for great speed
-possible haki
-master skill at hunting
-Moderate to high intelligence
-ominous presence
Marking the air as he named all the possible strength and advantages the wolves had, each one making the dread in his stomach worsen. An angry growl from the wolf caught his attention in time to see it give a strong swing of its right paw and sending out a string of hair. That hair quickly changed into a round chakram the size of a softball flying at him; aimed for his chest as The Doctor nearly panicked and bent his body to the right to just barely avoid it. Still it left a long cut along the side of his chest before going on to cut straight through the building behind him, how far it continued on was his guess as it left a sizeable split.
-Chakram devil fruit...check
Likely that was a warning for the wolf could easily shoot one out too fast for his eyes to follow.'Ok..and I have
-Strategical mind
-small weapons nothing more than a hindrance
-little to none battle experience
-The strength of an average adult (more like that of a kid he sobs at)
-Quick thinking
-High stamina
-Moderate speed
-moderate salvaging skill
-A devil fruit that nullifies or increases sense of pain
Checking off his skills then started rubbing and poking the air as if working out a complicated equation.'That goes there and..no wait can't forget about this.'Muttering to himself then rubbed at his chin.'A chance of -99.99% chance of possibly beating it..no wait that's not right.'Going back over his calculation and noticed the decimal in the wrong place.'Oh there we go...so a -300% of beating it.'Staring at the non-existent equation of his then leaned forward with hands placed on his hips to let out an heavy exhale.
*yeah......I am utterly, completely, no snowball in hell's chance, royally blue balled to kingdom come screwed straight down the creek without a paddle.*Sweat dripping down his face; on the verge of tears nearly at this unfortunate turn of events.
Standing back up after taking a deep breath.'Alright...how about we don't fight..huh? I can give you all the steak you could want. What do you say?'Forcing a weak smile, thinking how odd it was trying to reason with a wolf.
A booming growl exploded from the wolf's muzzle before pushing with its front paws and in vanished leaving concave cracks on the roof. A second passed as the large paw made a powerful swipe at his chest, but The Doctor, knowing it was coming had jumped back just enough to avoid those blade like claws from being fatal.
His body got sent flying, his shirt ripped open with four horizontal long, deep bleeding gashes along his chest. The sound of glass smashing from him smashing through a window filled his buzzed head and soon landed on a wooden floor.
Gasping out for the wind was knocked out of him and his head swimming; struggling to breath and look around, but his vision blurry and ears ringing left him completely stunned. For a moment he blanked out before shaking his head to take in a long, drawling gasp of air before slowly shiting onto his side to cough up a gob of blood.*Ugh...thank god for..the stalling*Letting out a wheeze while all that talking and muttering had been to let him discreetly edge himself in front of a window for he saw the wolf's attack coming.
Hoping the wolf would leave or think him dead and slowly lifted himself up off the floor, mindful of the shards of glass all over.'Need..to get going.'The strength still not fully returned, though succeeded to get himself half standing and started to limp towards the stairs, his legs weak and shaking still. From behind came a loud crash with dust and bits of stone sent flying; turning his head, peering over his shoulder and there within the dust cloud hid the form of massive beast.
Clearly this monster wasn't done with him.'......Fuck...me
