Moon #5

What is the most frightening thing to many people is often the unknown.

The unknown is the unpredictable factor that most people cannot possibly fathom or know how it will affect the world around it or those in it.

Space, aliens and other civilisations on undiscovered floating pieces of rock or meteorites to planets just like the ones everyone lives upon in what everyone calls earth.

The moment human kind become aware of such things, there is often fear that follows because of the potential threat they could pose.

They could covet the earths resources, wish to slaughter any other life forms different to themselves or may even wish to enslave the people of the world and take over the world while gaining many resources for themselves to build up their new empire.

Some may even use the resources to build up their power so that they can go back to fight for what they believe they have a right to on their homeland and put the planet at risk for their ambitions.

The Space Pirates were ruthless individuals who attacked on site when they saw others and did not hesitate to do so but that may have been a way for them to survive in the environment of space.

They mined up resources from the moon to gain a better way to live so while there would be space pirates, there would also be space merchants and traders somewhere.

If there were space traders, there would be a type of space currency and probably their own form of law enforcement group within space.

While most would be fearful of these new possibilities, Alyssia was excited because it was outside of her predictions and provided many new skillsets and futuristic or sci-fi based technology to be discovered along with new types of herbs and many other materials.

The flying space pirate ship technology, generators, pod technology, automata and many others was already a giant leap forward past a lot of what was on the earth below so she, Ashwin, Ein and Nica were very excited.

Ashwin and Aizah was the most excited to discover their roots while Ashwin was very interested in his peoples technology along with the other space civilisations.

Some of the spare pods and technology that could be taken away was put onto the Ark Maxim so that it could be taken back and studied further aLong with the materials that were found on the Space Pirates ship.

A little while later, on the moon within a secluded space where there was only moon rocks and dust around, many furry human figures were moving within the area as they clashed with each other within the difficult environment where the gravity was less than on earth and the breathable air was even less than on Skypiea or other sky islands.

Alyssia was at the very centre as she held her ground as she held out her arms the each side of her body.

Her body was coated with Elecko and her limbs with Haki at the same time so as she reached out, she was able to block an assault from both sides from Tristan and Carrot as they both channelled their Electro into their claw and punching attacks along with their weaker Armament Haki.

One simple clash seemed to stop their assault and somehow dispersed their attacks power before they tried to attack with other parts of their body but another large figure appeared behind while one came from above and another far away.

Archie came charging forward from behind ready to make use of his strong body and quake powers while Clifford came from above with his two swords raised above his head ready to slice down at her while Nica fired off a shot from her gun at just the right timing.

However the trap seemed to have not worked as expected as Alyssia did not release her grip on Carrot or Tristan and only slightly shifted her body to dodge the oncoming bullet before jumping into a backflip as her legs met the swords coming at her with one leg as she kicked off then to continue backward as she released her grip on Carrot and Tristan finally who had their arms twisted and rotated on the spot due to the force applied to them in the low gravity environment.

The missed bullet, the deflected swords and the release of Carrot and Tristan made Alyssia gain a stronger spin on her backflip and the line of site of Nica was obstructed.

The fist of Archie which was covered in a quake bubble, a very thin and faint layer of Haki and Electro was met with a stronger force which seemed to possess a similar property belonging to the Eight Impact Fist, Armament Haki and Elecko which had succeeded in knocking Archie off balance and breaking past his attack.

Alyssia controlled her breathing and movements as she was becoming more relaxed in the new environment. "Come again."

She could do things she could not do on earth because of the lower gravity and because her body was less weighed down, loose or relaxed but she did occasionally experience a loss of control.

However certain techniques could help to regain that control mid fight and let her fight many strong Minks who had potential to surpass Cat Viper and Dogstorm who are currently in their forties while she had already surpassed them at the age of seventeen in many ways whether it be the many techniques she possessed or her stats which many of them had reached the limit or surpassed it thanks to her bonus stats.

There were many clashes of Haki, clashes of Electro, clashes of Iron Body and Haki coated feet that met with swords, many gunshots which were dodged along with additional counterattacks in the form of long range Finger Pistols or Tempest Kicks and Eight Impact Fists which were used to pierce the quake bubbles as concentric waves met with the bubbles of concentrated seismic energy.

With the high level mastery over the technique and her mastery over creating impact dial types of attacks, concentric waves, shockwaves and ranged bullet and blade types of wind attacks with her legs, she had ventured onto her own power which was far more powerful than each of them and it was far more powerful.

However against Archie's mastery of his Quake Devil Fruit abilities and his current physique, she only needed to use her mastery over the Eight Impact Fist to overpower him and make him experience difficulty.

If she went all out without giving them room to grow then she would not feel any pressure herself resulting in both a loss for herself and others where there was a chance to experience a breakthrough.

However the two other Minks who had been personally nurtured by her were not too far behind as they had mastered abilities to adjust their bodies in the air within the lower gravity.

Moonwalk allowed then to readjust themselves and send themselves towards Alyssia who had just just sent Archie backwards and sent Clifford higher into the air with her kicks.
