BATTLING THE THREE SPIKED MONSTER.

Sage let out a sigh and flexed her fingers, as she moved her right hand to take a grip of the steering.

And with that, she zoomed in on the projection off to the right side which she assumed would be the closest spot to the Three Spiked Monster on the roof.

Pressing on some buttons close to where the projector was as her heart beat faster in her heart and her fingers hurt with how hard she clenched onto the steering.

[ Deactivating Shoot System…]

[ 5…7…15…20…25…27 ]

[ Deactivated.]

A robotic voice called out as several blue lights dotting the projector went off.

Sage had just deactivated the shooting system which was targeted at the top of the Mussel Mobile for flying creatures.

As the Mussel Mobile would not be able to safely come out if it was hit directly with one of the red cerulean balls.

Immediately the Musket at the top had been deactivated, and a loud thunderous roar that shook the earth resounded around the Lava Mountain.

This had sent the smaller creatures which had been chasing behind the Mussel Mobile and even the ones who had been nearby, scurrying away in fright and the feeling of suppression from a stronger creature.

"Kabe I need you to try shaking off the spiky on the roof, I have to get him to the ground where I can easily target him!"

Sage said her pitch a notch higher so he could hear her over the loud booms coming from the red balls' contact with the earth.

"Okay!" Kabe shouted, his voice mirroring hers. As he said that he spared a glance at the map In front of him.

Before flexing his hand on the steering and sharply jerked the steering wheel to the right.

In this process moving its occupant in the same direction.

Back in the compartments the children were once again thrown out of their seats.

There was once again a scratching sound and then a loud thud from behind the Mussel Mobile as the monster hit the ground.

"Gotcha!" Sage said under her breath as she spotted the three Spiked beasts tumbling into perfect view in the projection from its initial position on the roof of the Mobile.

"There you go, Sage!" Kabe let out as he struggled to get the Mussel Mobile skitting across the ground due to the way he had sharply cornered the control.

The Three-Spiked Monster was a vicious creature of the Lava Mountain.

It had large red eyes and a single demonic horn on its head which was covered with whips of smokey red energy.

Its entire face was covered in thick black scales and when it opened its mouth to let out a thunderous roar it revealed several rows of large pincer teeth jaggedly lined up inside.

Its murine eyes were glistening with hostility and range. Its muscled body was covered with bristles as hard as a boar.

Cauliflower ears sprouted out from either side of its head, puffy and raw from countless battles.

Even its scaley green face was brutally nuked and notched from previous battles.

The hair by its side was knotted and clotted dry, from a recent battle with another creature it had probably killed.

Sage kept staring into the projection as her gaze slid down the body of the Monster.

Not many had the privilege of sighting a Three-Spiked Monster, as the most commonly seen ones were the One Spiked and the Two Spiked.

The Three Spiked Monsters were usually spotted far away from the Life Line by the wandering.

Sage felt a shiver run down her spine and she suddenly felt so aware. Slowly bringing her gaze up the monster's body to rest on its face.

She was stunned for some seconds as she found the monster's eyes locked on hers.

Red botched stretched eyes met with black start eyes with the latter looking at the former with rage and anger as though it knew this human was responsible for the balls hurled its way.

"What are you waiting for Sage?" Kabe's shout brought her out of her trance.

Sage shook her head to clear her mind before slapping on some buttons to get every single Musket on the Mussel Mobile to target the greatest threat.

Which was the Three-Spiked Monster. She gazed back up at the projection where she had earlier spotted the Monster, to find out that it was blank.

"Shit! Kabe, the damn Spikey took out the cam! Does the There Spiked Monster possess intelligence?...they didn't talk about that back at the camp!"

"Just focus, and hope we get out of this alive…" Kabe stated with his teeth clenched hard.

Sage shouted so Kabe could hear her as she pressed the red button underneath her thumb to begin continuous shooting of the red circular balls.

She guessed that even though the Monster took out the cams, it wouldn't know how to escape the sensors.

She sighted a flash of green on the right side of the projection, which showed the happenings in front of the Mobile.

She pressed quickly some more buttons. And the effect was immediately noticed as there were resounding bangs.

The earth was rocked up by the series of a volcanic explosion that was denoted by the red circular balls as Sage had directed the balls In front.

There was an uproar of sand and dust particles that hooded the sight of Kabe who was maneuvering the Mobile.

The sight soon cleared. There was a vast deep explosion-sized hole in the ground some feet in front of the moving Mussel Mobile.

Kabe immediately pushed on the brake making the Mobile reduce its speed. Kabe turned the steering wheel to lead the Mobile around the gaping hole.

Sage immediately pulled up the red button to crease fire as she stared at the projection which was slowly becoming clear and the dust settled.

Not wanting to just sit and watch Sage got busy with tapping and shuffling between the different views on the projector trying to spot the Three-Spiked Monster she hoped had been hit by the balls.
