Everything had happened so fast. Keng glanced around him, looking at the strange flesh as it pulled him downwards into an area with loads of dead things. The sea serpent had eaten him because Freppie had frozen in fear.
"I shouldn't have saved him." Keng muttered to himself. Freppie was nothing but a odd ball. An odd ball dick to be precise. And now Keng was standing in the stomach of a sea serpent as the fleshy walls occasionally moved about.
Without much thought, Keng pulled Hydrosphere out of their holsters and lit the area around him. Hydrosphere had a strange affinity to his Light. Well, he wouldn't have really known if it wasn't for trial and error and word from the last Savior who carried the weapon.
The silver light lit the area up, showing things in different states of decomposition. Large bitten pieces of fish, whole fish and even Ferals were in here.
'I wonder how much this thing devoured to get so big.' Keng thought to himself. The sounds of the insides started to make ungodly noises, releasing Rya as she screamed and fell into the stomach.
"Rya?" Keng glanced over at the mermaid warrior. She steadied herself and straightened herself out. She took a look around. The strange water filled stomach was strange to her.
"Where are we now? Has the beast just swallowed us up just to let us die?" Rya asked. The flesh all around them rumbled as a yellow liquid fired from the stomach. Keng instantly flinched, realizing what was happening.
"Crap." Keng looked down. His body was literally burning away from the liquids inside the serpents' body. "Acid." Rya winced as the acid began to eat away at her. Keng maneuvered over to Rya and lifted the glowing Hydrosphere dagger. "Altered God Weapon Art: Protective Wave of Hydran." A ball of pure water and stars flew out from the dagger, pushing the acid out and keeping them in.
Rya glanced at her arms and tail, noticing bits and pieces of her body smoking. Keng noticed Rya didn't really complain about the acid. Keng winced as he slipped a dagger into its holster and touched one of his many wounds. The water around him reacted to his healing, glowing brightly as the sounds of hissing grew loud all around them.
"What do we do now?" Keng asked. Rya glanced at her wound healing and looked around. They were in deep inside the serpent's stomach and it looked like the serpent wasn't going to let them go so easily.
"We need a way out." Rya glanced back the way they came. "Can you try to get us up towards its throat?"
"Sure." Keng nodded. The sphere of water moved upwards, following the way they both had descended. The walls of the serpent began to push and pull. A loud vibration shook them as they slowly rose higher and higher. A loud thud noise was heard, followed by another shriek. "Is it trying to get out?"
Rya hoped that wasn't the case.
"Hurry, continue on." She urged him. Keng nodded and continued onwards. The walls of the throat started to fight against them. The shaking and the noises grew louder as Keng and Rya hovered. The wall in front of them kept close, throbbing as if it was ready at any time to open. Keng pulled his hand away from him. The healing light faded, slowly stopping the healing effect in the water as Keng looked at fleshy wall in front of them.
"Well," Keng lifted his arms up. "Now's a good time as any to rip my way through this thing." Rya turned to watch Keng close his hands and pull them away from each other. The walls all around them began to shake as Keng began to pull the wall apart. The serpent shrieked as everything began to shake around them. The throat walls began to push back, forcing his hands to almost slam against each other.
"A deep breath." Rya put a hand onto Keng's shoulder. A light began to glow as she stared at the problem in front of her. Rya was never one to back down from a fight even the serpent. Her energy began to pour into Keng, boosting his strength. Keng let out a roar, ripping his hands apart. The walls ripped apart, forcing Keng to quickly change maneuver. The sphere rushed forward, pushing out of the throat and into the mouth as Rya pulled her trident.
"Release me!" Rya shouted. The sphere popped as Rya shot forward. "Weapon Art: Myra's Might!" Keng watched as Rya slammed the trident into the roof of the mouth. A burst of energy fired out, arcing all along the roof of the mouth. The serpent shrieked as Keng and Rya rushed out.
"What's that?!?" Aliza pointed.
"RYA!" Denni shouted, moving forward. "Mr. Fox Spirit! You're okay!" The jaws of the mouth slammed shut, pushing Rya and Keng away from it. The current slammed Keng into one of the jagged walls. It seemed like Denni and Freppie had gotten help.
"Aliza, Denni, Freppie, Cayi." Vizo reigned in the group of Merfolk. "Now." Aliza was the first to rush forward. The tiny mermaid flew forward, slashing concentrated water attacks at the serpent. The sea serpent screeched as it tried to follow the tiny mermaid. Vizo followed after with Cayi behind him.
"Leader! Are you okay?" Cayi asked, stopping by Rya.
"I'm fine. I'm glad you came."
"AND FIRE!" Denni shouted. Denni launched orbs of energy at the sea serpent while Freppie seemed to throw a spear straight at the sea serpent. The attacks bounced off of the sea serpent as it grew agitated.
"Hide!" Freppie shouted.
"It's doing it again!" Denni shouted. The sea serpent pulled backwards as Aliza zipped to a stop in front of Keng.
"Are you okay, Fox Spirit?" Aliza asked. "We need to get to cover before it blasts us all away!"
The waters began to pull inward as the sea serpent raised its mouth into the air. Water and energy began to condense together as Vizo grabbed Rya and Cayi and bolted. Keng grunted as he turned to run. Aliza didn't need any confirmation if he was going to leave or not. She turned and bolted away, leaving Keng as the energy wrapped around him.
"Mark!" Keng pointed. "Displacement!" Keng blinked forward, marking and teleporting as he caught up to Aliza. The energy came to a complete stop as the sea serpent launched it straight for the group.
"Stand behind me!" Vizo shouted releasing Rya and Cayi. Rya squished Cayi in between her and Vizo as Denni, Freppie and Aliza lined up. "Hurry!" He motioned for Keng as Keng looked behind him.
"He's not going to make it!" Cayi shouted. "We should—"
"No! You're staying here, Cayi!" Aliza shouted.
"But—"
"No arguing!" Rya ordered. "Brace for impact!"
Keng grunted as he turned around. Displacement would get him to where he needed to be, but he wasn't one to play it too safe. Keng slid to a stop in front of the group as they shouted for him.
[Altered Form: Starry Sun has been activated.]
Keng's tails glinted like cosmos as the form wrapped around him. His five tails moved wildly behind him as a smile grew on his face.
"Keng! Get over here now!" Rya shouted. Hydrosphere twirled in Keng's hands as the water around him began to sizzle.
"He has a death wish!" Denni shouted.
"Enough of him!" Vizo shouted. The sea serpent released the ball of energy as Keng flew forward. The sandstone and sand. The water all around it began to fly straight for them as Vizo gritted his teeth. He pointed his crystal trident at the energy and watched the trident turn pitch black. "I'll absorb it all!"
[Resonance State has been achieved.]
Keng's smile grew bigger. Keng disappeared from his spot, appearing as a small speck in front of the large energy of water as Vizo and the others watched.
"I've always wanted to see if I could do this!" Keng cross slashed the water ball, watching it split into four parts. Wisps burst forth from his attack, devouring the entire energy ball as it exploded in front of him.
"Ahhh!" Denni screamed as the current blew past the entire group.
"Hold on!" Rya shouted. Denni went flying as Freppie turned and snatched Denni in mid air. Keng flew backwards, taken by the current as the wisps flew towards their master.
"Ahhh!" Keng shouted, flipping round and round. The smile on his face never fading as he threw his arms out, stopping himself. "Hahaha! It worked!" Keng smiled. He watched the sea serpent fly straight towards him without regard for Vizo and the others.
"Vizo." Rya swam upwards. Vizo grunted following after as he left Cayi and the others alone. Vizo and Rya lifted their tridents, impaling them straight into the belly of the serpent. Vizo's trident drained of its black energy and turned back into its crystal color while light exploded out of Rya's.
The sea serpent screamed in pain as black liquid coursed the serpent's body, stopping the attack as it flew straight for Keng. Keng and pointed it dagger straight for the serpent.
