Before a real conversation could arise between the three, a loud rumbling noise arose from the lake. Flooding the shore and pushing the dock up and over, water forced the dock to arch, pushing the Twili away. Another popping noise could be heard below the dock. Having little time to react to all this, the three were assaulted by strips of wood from the dock that EXPLODED. Then the lake rumbled again and again with fish flying out of the water from towering pillars of water.
As the three tried to watch the events unfolding, they would quickly see something sinister surface.
Roaring as loud as a tiger a massive creature with a long snake body as long as the rim of the lake showed its head. Like the small six legged creature defeated by Aiden, this one had a canon on its red-orange face. Its eyes were squinted and it looked around the lake. When it spotted Aiden it began twirling around in place.
Its snakey body coiled, spiraling and twisting creating a great wind. Wind picked up waves and the waves pushed away everything, further up the shore. A spout of water washed the area with heavy rain. Where Aiden was on the shore he could see the beast expel cannon balls from its mouth. They flew high into the sky then crashed down near the shore, splashing water. He was only able to save himself by heading toward the village. A crashing iron ball landed where he just stood, exploding and raising sand as high as a tree. Overhead Aiden saw more cannon balls zoom past him.
This monster was angry!
Minadi and Pallus were weakened (-1 Heart), having been thrown off the dock and pushed out of the water then assaulted by wooden boards.
Everyone in the club could head the sound a cannon firing. The town erupted into chaos until there were people forcing their way inside the small building. The hero's descendants were the go-to for occasions like these. The building was further away from the chaos of the falling metal, making it one of the few safe places.
"Looks like the adventure has to wait." Viv said. Stars in his eyes made it clear that he was ready for action.
A massive blast nearby caused all the villagers to duck in panic. A tree fell over near the building, the boom like an earthquake.
Uh. So are we going to hold off on the vote and kick some butt? Yeah? Yeah? Ok I'm going on ahead." Viv said, already running out and then leaping into the sky to see everything unfold.
