(Suika Scenario 1)[Gaea]
The whipping of the wind swept across my body as the weightlessness startled me into consciousness. I was falling.
My eyes shot open as I tried to gauge my height. I was still a distance away. Quickly, I scanned my possessions to find that I was fully dressed with my battle equipment. It was difficult to believe that I was asleep only a short time ago. Tightening my grasp on my ax, I spun through my descent and gave a powerful toss to counter my falling momentum. With the spiral propelling me along, I focused my strength into my fist.
With the ground swiftly approaching, I drove downward my attack to break my landing, "Strike- erm, Dive!"
Landing with a great crash, I managed to lessen enough of the shock from the impact to still be able to stand. The tremendous aching still ate at my body as I examined my surroundings. Apart from the crater of my landing, there appeared to be an array of trees that lined the landscape. Gentle, calm, and quiet, I felt the vibrant presence of the land linger in the air. It might not be like home, but it was beautiful all the same.
"Nice landing," a voice called, breaking me from my daze, "Four points!"
"Points? Four?" I murmured, lost mentally and physically.
"Yeah, four points. The score for the landing," replied the voice with an amused tone, "It've been more if that thing you threw didn't make such an impressive mess over there."
With the dust settling enough for me to see through it, I was finally able to identify what was talking to me. Actually, I couldn't identify it. It resembled a young girl with long sandy brown colored hair. A simple white shirt with its sleeves torn off their hemming stood in contrast to the seemingly intricate swirls of her two toned long skirt. On her feet were a pair of white socks and casual black loafers. From there, the similarities ended.
The first obvious difference was how there were two horns that sprouted from her head. Branching from the sides, the horns reached out to the length of her arms. Then, her arms were bound by chains with a colorful object on the opposite end of each. Her loud laughter and unstable swaying indicated a state of intoxication that was unheard of for a child.
"Ah, my ax!" I exclaimed after remembering that I threw it away.
Following the small person's directing, I came across a spectacular sight. Its impact really was impressive. A considerable rift scarred the earth with the nearby trees leveled and splintered. As I sifted through the debris, I heard the girl comment, "You're pretty strong, huh?"
"When I need to be," I mused after clenching the shaft from the clutter.
With a tremendous pull, I managed to free my ax from its prison only to buried by its captors. Taking ear of the hysterical laughter that echoed from the girl, I pushed my way out only to find the pinning force suddenly dispersed. Looking to the flooding light, I noticed that the girl was lifting up the wood pile with a bright smile.
"I do that a lot, too," she mused with a hand scratching innocently through her hair.
After escaping a premature burial, I sighed with relief as I thank the ridiculously strong girl, "Thanks for the hand. Name's Gaea."
"I'm Suika, an oni," she declared proudly, "First time seeing an oni, huh?"
"Actually, no," I replied to her surprise, "But yeah for a living one."
Exploding with laughter, Suika remarked, "Oh, you celestial are so funny!"
"Where's the celestial?" I asked not certain of any others that were nearby.
Suika's laughter subsided as she echoed my confusion, "You mean you aren't one even though you fell from the sky?"
At a loss for what to say next, she shrugged and pulled out a massive bottle that had been dangling from the back of her skirt. After several loud gulps of its contents, she held it out and offered, "Want some?"
With confusion as an ever present companion, I shrugged, "Why not. I can go for a good drink."
Catching the bottle from a fair toss, I uncorked the top and felt an overwhelming surge from within. Taking a quick sip, I could feel the churning liquid burn me from within. "Good stuff," I approved as I chugged down a larger portion of the bottle.
Tossing the bottle back to its owner, I heard her energetic laughter as she remarked, "You're not bad for a human."
"Not really a normal human, but whatever," I replied.
Bursting with another fit of laughter, I noticed that Suika was rolling on the ground, or rather, that she was sitting on the ground the whole time. Lifting my ax, I split open one of the fallen trees and offered her a seat.
"Ah, too funny!" she commented through her hysteria.
Just then, a tremendous grumble roared from within me and only served to intensify the hilarity. After reigning in the overpowering laughter, Suika said, "I know the perfect place to fix that up."
"On you then since I'm broke."
With another contorting bout of laughter, Suika assured, "Won't cost you a thing."
