The Judgment of Celestial

Before Harold could even do a thing the Hunter used his legs to throw debris at Harold and quickly jumped back to his feet. With that the hunter jumped up and charged him.

Harold covered his eyes as the debris went in his face. He wiped the debris from his eyes and opened them just in time to see the Hunter about to pull off his attack. Out of pure reflex, Harold dodged the Hunter's attack and countered with a back-handed strike to the Hunter's face. After this, Harold turned around to the first Hunter and delivered a kick so strong, that it would litterally stop the Hunter's heart for about 3 seconds. Harold had then elbowed the other Hunter in the stomach and then followed with another double-palm strike. He performed these movements at expert speed.

(I'm just doing math...there were three hunters...One tried to kill Harold, Harold attacked another one; sending him through a wall, and then Sebastian attacked another Hunter. That would technically mean that Harold's fighting two of them while Sebastian's fighting one. I don't know, that's just how I'm seeing it.)

Right when the punch was about to hit Sebastian in the chest, a quick reaction from his senses of the glowing Katana caused him to pull out his Katana, and give a thunderous slash across the hunter's arm. He rolls out of the bed and falls onto the ground, and he breaths very hard. He was filled with so much exhaustion, he felt that he could not go on. But he must. He spins up on his feet, still holding the Katana and turns to the hunter.

The Downeaster Alexa alas hit the sands of Gedian Island. The storm seemed to encircle the isle and Captain Elijah, Master Cecil, and Jack jumped off the ship. Elijah examined the beaten up ship in horror. "Oh no! My beautiful vessel! She won't make a trip back unless I repair these damages at once."

"I'll help you," Cecil replied. "Students you have a mission."

~Downeaster Alexa~
"Why you're mission is to continue the mission. The witch of the woods is somewhere on this isle, so find her," Master Cecil ordered. Jack sighed and turned around to look at the thick forest.

~Harold~
The hunter Harold just elbowed quickly recovered and delivered an uppercut followed by a low kick to his knee with the back of his heel which had a sharp blade on it cutting Harold's right knee. The hunter withdrew his leg and prepared to fight.

~Sebastian~
The hunter punched the ground causing the ground under Sebastian to shake and throwing him off balance. This gave the hunter more than enough time to deliver a double palm strike hitting Sebastian directly on the chest throwing him back. Before Sebastian could hit anything the third hunter which Harold knocked back jumped up and delivered a drop kick on the flying Sebastian sending him face first into the wall.

Harold shouted in pain as the blade sliced his skin. However, it was then that Harold had realized that these weren't Martial Art experts. Martial arts experts prefered only hand-to-hand combat, whereas this Hunter had just now attacked him with a blade. Then it hit Harold, these guys were some sort of hitmen; obviously trained in a special manner. Ignoring the pain in his leg, Harold got into a ninjitsu (Not Ninjutsu) stance and prepared himself to give it his all. "That's enough warming up for me. Time to really show what I'm capable of." Harold said confidently.

As Brad headed off, he asked Master Cecil, "Do we have any leads other than knowing that she is on this island? I mean that's not really a lot to go on."

Sebastian hit the wall hard and rolled on his front side in pain, grunting like never before. It then hit him that this quest was not going to be easy in the end and this is just the beggining, yet he is struggling. His body floats in the air, due to the pain that is affecting him. His celestial was at work through his body. It was automatic without his consent of use.

Sebastian had his eyes closed, with his arms crossed over his chest, as the aura around him was bright enough to blind the hunters. The Katana then was guided over to Sebastian and as goes to him, he opens his eyes as they were blue, grabs the sword and lands on the ground as the hunters, who were standing on the ground, were all shot up in the through the ceiling into the next room, as he knew exactly where each of them were. His celestial was under control, and he knew that he was in a mode he promised never to use. It was a celestial that corrupted him forever ever since the day he fought his true enemy. He floats into the next room where people side behind furniture from sebastian and the writhing hunters, ready for them to attack.

Sebastian with an echoing voice:.....Help....Me!

Sebastian swipes his Katana into the ground, causing a orb to shoot out aimlessly at a hunter.

~Downeaster Alexa~
"A lead...hmm search for the catlon princess, Escwyn. She may know where the witch is hiding. After all the catlons are the guardians of the forests," Cecil answered Brad. Jack was followed Andrew but stopped and turned around to wait for Brad. The storm started to come over the island as it begun to rain. It seemed as though something drew the storm in.

(Harold)
The hunter readied himself to fight Harold. The hunter drew a needle and injected his left arm with it at the vane. The hunter screamed in pain and suddenly his muscles doubled in size. The hunter loomed down at Harold and cracked his knuckles. The hunter was far from reach from Harold but still he threw a punch. A powerful gust of wind struck Harold in the chest followed by two more.

(Sebastian)
The two hunters separated from one another and got on both sides of Sebastian. The first hunter drew a strange gun and shot it at Sebastian and struck him at lightspeed. A small orb now sat on Sebastian's chest and suddenly exploded into a fray of light energy. The device was designed to force a Celestial user into using a large percentage into keeping them alive thus draining their Celestial. The second hunter fired the same gun at Sebastian and it too struck him.

"I...I shall be freed..." a voice echoed in Sebastian's mind. It was dark and threatening and commanding and just hearing it would strike fear into all but the strongest of men.

Harold bent down, dodging the gusts of wind. He figured that an attack at that distance would have been a distant one. Upon dodging all three gusts, Harold dashed at the Hunter and jabbed two of his fingers into a nerve area on the side of the Hunter's neck; moving at expert speed and causing serious pain to the Hunter if striking succesfully. The pain would last for about a year at least if the strike was successful.

~Gedian Island~
"Three feet away from the Downeaster Alexa and you're already freaking out. Calm down Brad," Jack said walking ahead to catch up to Andrew who cleared a small path for them. A fox the size of a horse ran by; it was a kilton. (Horses don't exist in Igros) Kiltons travel in packs guarding the woods from anything that they see as dangerous.

~Harold~
Harold's fingers became stuck to the hunter's neck. The hunter laughed and delivered a powerful blow to his stomach followed by another and another. The impacts would have thrown Harold back but his fingers were stuck on his neck and would not budge an inch.

Being a Martial Arts expert, Harold also knew how to take pain as well as give it. He took the first few blows easily, then he used his free hand to guide the hunter's fist away from him and then kicked his chin. The impact would have been enough to free Harold's other hand as well as temporarily paralyze any normal human. However, this Hunter's new and insane strength didn't exactly qualify as normal. When his fingers were free, Harold used his other foot to flip off (...That sounds wrong, but you know what I meant.) and away from the large Hunter. "Come on! What's wrong with you!? This guy's big, but you're trained in every fighting stlye known to man. Remember your training before you went to Bulma Academy. Jujitsu. Perfect for when you're fighting someone outside your weight class." Harold thought to himself before getting into a Jujitsu stance.

~Gedian Forest~
Jack stopped and looked at a large section of Gedian Forest has been cut down. He looked across the fields and saw a few kiltons roaming about as though saddened by what happened here. A few kiltons laid dead on the ground by stabbed wounds and some as though biten by a belf.

"What happened here?" Jack asked.

~Harold~
The hunter laughed and charged at Harold and suddenly he vanished. The hunter appeared directly in front of Harold and uppercut him before vanishing again. This time he appeared behind Harold and used the fallen bed and struck Harold with it before vanishing again.

~Just going for broke here 😬~

"Good question. But whatever it was sure didn't care about the wild life," Brad said. There were downed trees everywhere and the way that the kiltons were moping about sure didn't help anything. "What if this was done by the witch. Maybe she was looking for something and let nothing stand in her way. I mean, isn't this forest supposed to be guarded by some sort of spiritual guardian?"

"why would a witch stab the kiltons to death?" andrew wondered aloud, looking at the wounded animals..."this doesn't make sense..either the witch is a fake, or there someone else on this island doing this"

"Forrtû the Angel of Earth is said to have a temple here," Jack answered Brad. "But maybe...Andrew might be on to something. I don't think she's here alone. Some of these kiltons have been biten; I doubt she would bite them."

"I was thinking the very same thing, Jack. I think that we should try and find this Forrtu guy and see what he knows," Brad said walking further into the newly decimated forest. He paused suddenly and turned around. "Does anyone know where his temple is," he asked with a embarrassed smile on his face.

"HER temple has never been found after the end of the Silver Ages," Jack answered.
