The Predator Becomes The Prey (Tai,Admin:Jael) [Finished All Exited]

Music:

OOC INFO: Kynan knows little to nothing about the inuchakk, he is hunting the creature as it seems like a nice kill that will sustain him for a long time.

These creatures whatever they were, lurking in the shadows of the water below the tundra’s rim, occasionally they broke the surface a horn and small sections of possibly a tail or something along those lines would appear before diving back under into the depths, they got close to the ice wall occasionally but getting to them would be the issue, it wouldn’t be ideal to fight them on their terms.

The Hunter, crouched observing these things using a snow wall he had erected to protect himself from the sea winds, his Tundra Wolf Hide Armour with its white fur, seemed to blend into the environment itself. His crude shortbow unstrung by his side as he sat and observed whenever these creatures came.

He began his plan, surely killing one of these things would bring some very bountiful produce to trade as well as some meat and other materials that could be used to survive in this hospitable landscape.

The only problem was getting that thing to stay above the surface. He began using the snow as paper using his wolf-fang knife to draw his plan. Using one of his explosive tipped arrows.

He could use it to try to bring down part of the ice wall onto the creature as it came to the surface this should as it falls force it to come up to avoid being dragged and pinned in the depths. This would be the time to attack it when it’s stuck there.

Next step would be to release one of his favourites, a Wraith-Fang.

The idea aim for the largest section of its body that means I shouldn’t miss, next I would need to shoot off a Flash Flare, guessing these beasts prefer the darkness it should give it quite a shock giving me time to reposition and catch it in a net.

At least while it tries to get free I can fill the area’s with vital organs full of arrows hopefully the blood loss should do it in or at least prevent it from diving.

The Hunter his mask obscuring most of his face had strung his bow. A "Fuse Tip" notched as he sat near the ledge waiting for one of the creatures to come towards the more weathered side of the glacier.

The only thought was “I’ve got one shot at this, if it goes wrong I’m either dinner or wasted resources”

Rampaging Unicorn Bio:

It was clear to everyone and anyone in the Imuchakk territories that the most wild and dangerous of threats rested within the waters surrounding the icecap.

From time to time their would be small piranha and maybe other vicious fish, but none compared to the rumored goliaths under the water. Wanderers and tourists from all around the world would foolishly come in on their ships, sailing towards the Tundra as if they could conquer it with ease; however getting past these creatures was far from easy.

Several ships had disappeared in these waters, and it would continue that way as long as the sea beasts remained alive and healthy. And today was no different than any of the Unicorn's other hunting days.

Some would believe that the Rampaging Unicorns were foolish, stupid, and overall just brutes with no brains; however those people are quite incorrect. The Unicorn is first and foremost, a hunter.

Of course the stray Unicorn, a hunter from the main pack, wasn't able to see the strange little creature up above. The wall was far too high and the beast could see little to nothing unless if it came above water.

Looking for meat, for any sort of nourishment, the Rampaging Unicorn surfaced. Its red horn gleamed in the sun's rays as its tough, impenetrable scales did the same. The creature lifted its head up so it could see anything and everything around it, concealing its gargantuan torso underneath the water still.

Today, there would be blood.

Music:

A red horn gleamed in the sunlight as it breached the waves of the sea’s surface near the glacier, the horn was a sign of things to come its size was huge so what is this beast which holds such a horn like.

The creature was close now, it was time to see what this beast truly was like, the beast of the sea’s it was time for the great predator to be struck from above to become the prey its self.

The White Archer, his side near his snow wall with his fuse tip notched in bow and string, the sleek  plume of three white owl feathers sat directly behind his index finger which sat above the arrow, his middle finger which sat below.

The "fuse tip", a small metal barrel like thing which was embedded onto the arrow thick shaft to counter its weight, was rather hollow inside but the mixture of dried compounds inside from tree’s sap, beast’s organs and mushroom’s juices. All worked together to create a concoction of a rather explosive paste, when it struck something hard the trigger launched and would cause sparks to occur causing this mixture to produce an incredibly strong 5 metre explosion which would spray boiling hot shrapnel.

Kynan drew back arrow and string, taking in a deep breath as he did as the creature swirled near the surface, taking aim at his target the eroded glacier wall.

With that the arrow was released the arrow flew through the skies as it headed for the wall.

It was now or never as Kynan drew out his next arrow as he peered down to the sea’s…….

FYI: Rampaging I need you to say if the ice face goes boom and collapses :)

Tai hadn't seen daylight for a while. He didn't really talk to much people, because he really busy on his duty. Today was his day off from all that so he was still planning on what he wanted to do. As he found himself in the bed with his sheet wrapped up like a baby. His feet out and his mouth opened snoring. Tai didn't even wanna move from his bed. He was so cold that they could see it on his face. Only if he had stayed up when he was on guard duty. He was deciding to sleep it off, but for some reason he woke up and couldn't go back to sleep. This was a common habit, but at least he would see a little daylight.

He found himself walking towards the Rampaging Rivers to remember the day he had killed his first Rampaging Unicorn. Suddenly, as it caught his attention that a man was fighting a Ramping Unicorn. From the looks of it this man wasn't apart of the Tribe. Nothing about him spelled Imuchakk. It was Taihele's duty to take out any intruders, but he would leave that to the chieftain.

" Who was this guy?" he said raising an eyebrow

As he slid down a snow hill, but slightly rolled once or twice. He straightened himself as Tai continued to look at this combat. The man was on a icecap. Tai was gonna stop him from this illegal act, but he would rather stop him once he had killed the beast to take the loot with him to the tribe.

Tai started from a jogging position, then phased into a running position and leaped onto the glacier. He was to lazy to even go around so yeah. Tai was hiding as he watched the man fight the great Rampaging Unicorn. He wasn't from this tribe, but had great potential. Tai just wanted to see this whole thing go through, but he knew for sure that this man was going to have to speak with the Chieftain. Tai never wanted to face her. He didn't know what he go himself in as he sighed looking at the man with his bow & arrows.

The beast, head peering upwards at his prey (a human with a bow and a sheathe of arrows), prepared to launch himself at the rock face, when it noticed the slightest twang of string; a projectile had been flung from the bow. It flew into the glacier wall behind him. The unicorn was taken back at the marksman's awful aiming skills when an explosion echoed across the canyon; he ducked down, under cover of icy water, as a great portion of the ice behind him fell downward into the raging river. Torso and underbelly still hidden, the Unicorn peered upwards once more, preparing to launch himself towards the glacier upon which the mortal man stood; He planned on hitting directly under the face this archer stood upon, which would smash the ice and send him toppling down to the river or sailing through the air.

The natural hunter curved its massive body like an S, bending it slowly back and forth, back and forth, before using a small ounce of his strength to propel himself out of the rapids at a speed of 30m/s and smash into the glacial face which his prey was standing on. Its massive horns made gargantuan cracks in the ice, ripping through it like parchment, and eventually causing the surface to crash into the sea. The unicorn did not see his prey- perhaps he fell into the water- so it quickly descended back into the depths to scout, making sure to protect its vulnerable underbelly.

Music:

The shot hadn't worked as intended it only brought down a large chunk of ice down towards the creature, which had rapidly dived as it had first attempted to come up. This guy was far scaler than he had hoped he would need to use its momentum against it.

This time though it had gained momentum and was closing on the surface fast, it was going to jump and use its body mass against the ice he was standing on, it would easily smash this ice to pieces with its mass, size and momentum.

Kynan swivelled on his feet and began running as the creature exploded from the water, breaking its surface, he had no choice he had to try and jump putting the wraith-fang in to his mouth and jamming the shaft sideways between two pairs of molars on either side of his mouth.

In such a country you never leave home without a pair of ice picks, these things help you get up anywhere they are the tool of survival, now it was time to pray it would work.

The snow acted like powder as the creature smashed into the ice, it began to split and crumble and fall, Kynan jumped quickly to clear the shards and fragments of ice that were now falling.

It was like time slowed as the powdered snow consumed him as he fell from his fall, the snow decreasing vision as he swung the ice pick.

With a crack the ice pick hit something hard and stuck, as Kynan slammed his left shoulder hard into an ice wall.

His grip on his bow was still good, but that arm wasn’t feeling too good as pain was numbed by sheer adrenaline. As he peered down into the water below all he could see was ice and darkness in the water and a fall into ice. The creature was lurking somewhere and he only really had one way to go.

That was down!

The unicorn scoured the waters nearby for the little human- it raced about underneath the eddying ripples, too deep to be seen, searching for the body of the archer. This conquest was futile, however, as once the beast looked through the rippling water's surface, he found his prey, hanging from a wall of solid ice. The leviathan swam round and round, faster and faster each time, until he reached a speed of 40m/s, propelling itself with its massive and muscular body, before leaping out of the water and flying straight towards the archer.

He knew he had won. There was no doubt about it. Lest the marksman leapt into the water to evade the goliath strike, he was dinner- and he would simply be easy prey if he entered the domain of the deep.

The Rampaging Unicorn is typically thought of as a stupid animal. This is obviously not the case. It is a prime hunter, king of the waters, and perhaps top predator on the mortal plane.

Music:

The Creature came out as expected it was far too overzealous, it neglected the sky was the plane of the birds and you would always be pulled back down if you didn’t have wings.

The scaly beast snaked its way as it flew through the sky, he released his grip from his ice pick and let himself fall straight down towards to sea of water and ice.

The force of the wind and him forcing his left arm up, burned and hurt like hell but he got it up with the wind keeping it there at the least resistant spot. He had grabbed the “wraith-fang” from his mouth and drew it back in the string as he fell, forefinger above the arrow and middle finger below.

The creature was stupid enough not to follow certain rules don’t enter the plains that you don’t own, it had tried to seize the sky, so all Kynan was going to do was fall.

As he fell and the beast surged towards the ice pick still left in the wall, he released the arrow from below this shot needed to drive home and the best place was to target the centre of mass.

Technique:

The unicorn was struck hard by an unforeseen arrow. A sharp burning pain spread through its weak underbelly as it plunged into the depths of the freezing river, hoping to erase the pain with icy water. This did not work. He rose up once again, smashing into glacial walls of ice, before leaping out of the water in a final attempt to kill the archer- he leapt too high and missed his mark, landing on the solid ice, cracking it ever so slightly. Perhaps man ruled the lands; sea beasts had to stick to the sea.

The unicorn had died. (Exit)
