The Figure Part 2

Part 1: Hunters and The Hunted

Arc 5: Monster Hunting.

(Sam starts walking into his classroom, Wrath is looking at him)

Wrath: Oh c'mon Sammy! You can't ignore me forever! I sense that bit of Eren Yeager in you!!! Set him and me free!!!

(As Sam walks into the classroom he turns his head back to Wrath, but faces forward and closes the door to the classroom)

Wrath: (Outside the classroom) Eh! We'll get along soon enough!!! (He looks over to Able patrolling the grounds) Everyone has their break point... Kakumei o tsudzukeru as I always say.

(Several Hours Later, The Sun starts setting and Able is patrolling the grounds school grounds still. He is walking down a hallway)

(He turns around a corner and accidentally bumps into Evelyn carrying several books. They all fall to the ground)

Able: (Waving his hands around) Oh I am so sorry!!! (He starts bending down to help pick up the books) I just started walking and didn't see yo-...

Evelyn: No! No! It's all my fault!!!

Able: No I-...

(The Man from earlier comes running through the hall towards Evelyn)

The Man: Evelyn! Let me help pick those up!!! (He puts his hand on Able's chest to stop him) Don't worry yourself buddy, just continue with your guard work...

Able: (Thinking to himself) Oh! I am gonna chop this asshole in half!!! (He face takes on a innocent look and he takes the Man's hand to shake it) We've never been formally introduced, Anderson Redfield.

Johnathan: (Shaking Able's hand) Oh... uh. Johnathan Te-...

(Able intentionally crushes Johnathan's hand. And Johnathan lets out a scream and holds onto his hand. And Evelyn just remains silent, not know what to do)

Able: Oh.. Sorry! Sorry!!! I sometimes misjudge my own strength!!! (Grinning his teeth) With my near Dwayne Johnson level muscles. (Smiling again, patting Johnathan on his left shoulder) Now go to the nurse's office and get a band aid, a painkiller and a place to cry-... I mean sleep for the night...

Johnathan: (Slowly walking away holding onto his left hand, with pain in his voice) Y-... yes sir.

Able: (Looking at Johnathan, he bends down and picks up Evelyn's books) Yeah sorry about that... that happens sometimes.

Evelyn: No worries really...

Able: (Hands over all the books to Evelyn, he is nervously shaking) So... Do, you want... (He starts sweating and he turns around) I'm sorry... I got things to do and grounds to protect!

Evelyn: (Confusingly looking on at him as he walks away) Oh...kay then?

Able: (Holding onto his head, thinking to himself) Ah stupid, stupid!!! (He hits himself several times) Able... you're a man! You got this!!! The second you see her tomorrow ask her out! No matter what!!! (He looks up to the sky) Ah!!! Dad? What would you do in this situation!? (He looks back to the ground) You'd probably handle it a lot better than me...

(While Able is patrolling the grass fields, he bumps into Sam standing alone)

Able: Sam... you look miserable to say the least. What's the matter?

Wrath: (Circling around Sam with his arms crossed) Oh him? He's been quiet the entire day... hell he didn't even speak to the students. (He stands next to Able, facing the opposite direction as Able walks towards Sam) Of course you can't hear and see me... but my dear Abley; it's the thought that counts. I would be singing MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" right now... but I don't want to be attacked by copyright lawyers.

(Me, The Author: *Nervously Sweating because of The Ocean Man jokes in Part 0*)

Able: Well...?

(Sam just looks at Able, but remains silent)

Able: Uh... well. I guess I'll just go? Professor work... probably burns you out? (Walks past Sam behind his back) I'll leave you to it... just keep a lookout for The Trapezoid if he appears...

(As Able walks past Sam, Sam pickpockets the college master key from him. Able doesn't notice at all)

Wrath: (Talking from inside Sam's mind) Haha! Using the old Seth Pendragon teachings I see!? See that's why I like you! You always think a step ahead at all times. Not to mention you learn from your mistakes, as many as there are.

(Sam starts walking away tightly holding onto the master key as the Sun sets and the sky turns dark)

(Later that night)

(Sam is lying down on a bed in his classroom, unable to sleep he rolls around)

(Sam closes his eyes for a few seconds and when he opens them at the end of his bed he sees. Isabel Adachi, Erik Pendleton and a 12 year old boy standing at the end of his bed looking at him all of them with smiles on their faces. They have a ghostly purple mist around them, reflecting Sam's eye color)

(Sam has a look of regret on his face and he opens his mouth to say something. But he quickly closes it as no words come to him)

(Sam is quickly distracted by the loud screams of a Girl from outside and his eyes narrow)

(Able arrives at the screaming Girl's location and finds The Trapezoid standing over her dead bloody body, with her throat brutally ripped out. It starts eating her throat with a wide smile on its face almost as if taunting Able, blood spilling on its Closed Black and white flannel shirt and torn brown pants)

Able: Oh... you bastard. (He summons Excalibur in his right hand and stands to fight The Trapezoid. He holds onto Excalibur firmly with both hands, he straightens his back. He brings up Excalibur to his forehead and flips Excalibur sideways, his eyes glaring sharply. The Demonic Rose-Like engravings on the sword shine golden under the moon's light. Several Students and Teachers come running over to the area) (Lightly turning his head towards the students and Teachers) I suggest you all run away... this ain't exactly for the faint of heart and friendly.

(Blood starts spewing out of The Trapezoid's back as two long Hacksaw-like wings spread from it back. A gust of wind blows around Able and soft winds circle around Excalibur constantly)

(The air is tense, Able and The Trapezoid staring each other down 5m away from eachother. The only noise coming from Harness Winds, Able's Elementa. Who'll make the first move?)

(The Trapezoid takes a single step forward and flies towards Able at an incredible speed)

(Able remains patient, but when The Trapezoid is withing 135cm [The length of Excalibur] he swings Excalibur and strikes The Trapezoid's face diagonally, stunning it backwards. Leaving a massive scar on its face, Able chases The Trapezoid. Swinging Excalibur side to side, by all of his slices are being deflected)

(He throws Excalibur forwards next to the Trapezoid's face, he then catches Excalibur by the pommel and brings it back to his hand, just as The Trapezoid turns it head, slicing a piece of its left jaw open)

(Able holds Excalibur behind his shoulder in his left hand and reaches into his Jacket. He pulls out a Sawed Over Under Double Barreled Shotgun that has black steel metal and a dark oak varnish, with engravings of a deer on the barrel. He aims at The Trapezoid's head, be it knocks Able's arm away. Able still manages to get a shot off and hit its shoulder, it was loaded with incendiary rounds)

(The Trapezoid screams and pain and flies away into the night sky)

Able: (Shouting up at the sky while pointing Excalibur. Clouds start covering the moonlight) Yeah! Kick my ass again! I dare you bastard!!!

(Teachers and Guards start walking up to Able and he hides away Excalibur)

One of the guards: (Aiming his pistol at Able) Sir! Who are you!?

Able: (He holsters his Double Barreled Shotgun) *Sigh* My real name's Able Pendragon... now you all need to listen to me! (He straightens his back and faces everyone) You need to gather all the personal and students!!! Immediately might I add!!! Me and my friend have been tracking this thing for a few weeks! And it's your ideal image of a boogeyman! It uses that oh so familiar fear of the dark to its advantage, to feast on... (Lightly shaking his head) Well... people. Gather everyone!!! Separate them into groups!!! Close but not too close from each other!!! You need weapons, not something enough to kill the son of a bitch, but something to stun him at least! We ask ourselves, "What is Beyond This Endless Dark? Is It Our Fears!? Is It The Truth!? Is It Our Bed of Cold Dirt!?"!!! No! It is our Light!!! And the only way we can find that Light!!! Is through pushing forwards!!! WILL YOU PUSH FORWARD!!!? (Everyone merely remains silent, but Able raises his fist to the sky as it starts snowing) I asked! Will you push forward!!!? (Everyone raises there fists to sky and shout at the top of their lungs) Will you!!!?

Everyone: (Shouting so hard it can be heard from the other side of the campus) YES!!!

Able: (Thinking to himself) Wonder where Sam is... (He reaches into his pocket to find the master key, but it's missing) What the...? I swore it was in my pocket a minute ago!!! Did it just grow legs!? Did it walk away, marry a beautiful woman and have kids!!? *Tch* Probably lost it during the fight.

Evelyn: (Comes running up to Able) Hey! (She stands in front of Able) Umm, it's Able now right?

Able: Haha... it was always Able. "Anderson Redfield" was just an alias.

Evelyn: And... your friend?

Able: His real name is Samuel Logan Reyes. Just call him "Sam" please.

Evelyn: That speech was... amazing and beautiful.

Able: Thanks.

Evelyn: How'd you come up with it?

Able: (Scratching the back of his head) Haha it comes naturally. So I've been meaning to ask... would you-...

The Chancellor: (Holding a note board with a pen) Jushin! You're in group Four!

Evelyn: (Looking at the Chancellor) Oh! Sure be there right now!!! (She looks at Able and starts walking away) Well I'll see you later then!

Able: (Looking at her walking away) Sure... (Thinking to himself) Just talk to her when you see her again Able! Just speak up to her! That's what Dad would do!!! Grit his teeth, stand tall and speak up!!! (He takes a step forwards to Evelyn, but stops and turns around) Let's go find Sam and ask for relationship advice first!!!

(He arrives at Sam's classroom and since he doesn't have a key. He straight up knocks it down, only to find no one inside at all. Only Sam's bags are left inside)

Able: (Looking around the room) Great now he's left too. Where to... is a mystery. Whatever happened to "Team Coordination"?

Security Guard: (He is talking through Able's walkie-talkie attached to his belt) So uh Mr. Whatever your name is; everyone's been separated into 5 groups and they are currently gathering the students. What exactly are you gonna do?

Able: (Picks up the walkie-talkie) I'm gonna lure this bastard out. It doesn't quit until it's satisfied by its Gluttony... it oughta be close. So keep an eye on the skies.

Security Guard: Right... you find your friend somewhere?

Able: Nope! He's nowhere to be seen... tell me if you bump into him. Look for a Short Guy with Purple Eyes.

Security Guard: Right! Might I add? How are you gonna lure him out?

Able: Ever watch "Predator"?

Security Guard: The Arnold Schwarzenegger one?

Able: Yeah...

(Able kicks down the door to the Woodwork class and starts gathering everything wooden)

(The Trapezoid is assessing it wounds on top of a rooftop)

(Able throws everything wooden on the grass outside in a pile)

(The Trapezoid is walking around inside a classroom, when it opens a cage containing a bunny inside)

(Able starts pouring gasoline over the wooden objects)

(The Trapezoid stands on top of a rooftop, the bloody hand of the bunny in its hand. Its wounds start slowly healing)

(Able throws a lit match into the wooden objects as it slowly starts burning. He summons Excalibur and slams into the dirt as he watches the fire and he lets out a shout to call The Trapezoid for a fight)

(The Trapezoid throws off its top hat and screams up to the snowing sky)

(8 minutes later. Able is standing still with his eyes closed, holding onto Excalibur in front of the slowly spreading fire)

(The Trapezoid flies fast overhead, briefly causing a shadow. Able opens his eyes and picks up Excalibur ready to fight. He places Excalibur over the fire and uses Harness Winds. The fire surrounds the edge of the blade)

(The Trapezoid lands softly behind Able, not making a sound. Able slowly turns his head around and in a spinning motion, he swings Excalibur at the Trapezoid. The swing causes a slash of fire to spit from the blade)

(The Trapezoid is stunned by the fire as Able lunges towards it with Excalibur. [Note: From now on The Trapezoid is gonna be written as TR, because typing "The Trapezoid" over and over gets tiring] TR dodges Able's lunge attack and hits his face with its claws. Leaving 3 claw marks on the left side of Able's jaw)

Able: (Holding onto the left side of his jaw, he holds onto Excalibur in his right hand) No... my sexy face!!! (He turns around to TR) Do you know of the concept of "Being Pissed"!? Because that's me, right now!!! (He draws more fire to Excalibur using Harness Winds) That's probably gonna leave a scar you ASSHOLE!!!

(Able slices the air, sending a vertical slash of fire, followed by a horizontal slash towards TR)

(TR tries flying away from the fire, but its left leg get hit by the vertical slash and it falls to the ground)

(Able runs over to TR and pulls out The Double Barreled Shotgun, he kicks TR in the face and shoots it in the spine)

(TR uses one of its winds to knock Able back as it stands up slowly and shaking. It turns around to fly away, but Able grabs both its wings and keeps them closed)

Able: (Holding onto TR's wings) Going somewhere!? Because I'm not done with you for the night!!!

(Able uses Excalibur and chops off both TR's wings and it screams painfully and hauntingly into the night)

(TR falls to the ground and Able plunges Excalibur into its back, killing it)

(Able lets out a yell of victory into the night, the fire starts burning out and the snow stops coming in)

(6 hours later. Paramedics and Police Officers have arrived at the college. The Sun is slowly rising)

(Able is standing in front of Evelyn)

Able: So umm... now that all this is over. I've been... m- meaning to a- ask something...

Evelyn: Oh yeah sure what?

Able: W- would... you... please... (He straightens his back) GO ON A DATE WITH ME!?

Evelyn: (She lets out a small giggle and covers her mouth) Sure! I've been catching on to everything, you've been trying to do. You could've just said so, haha!

Able: T- thanks! When?

Evelyn: How about next week or so?

Able: Yeah that seems great!

(A teacher is marking off her notebook when she sees two students standing next to TR poking it with rulers)

Teacher: Hey! Get away from that thing you two!!! You don't know what diseases it could have!

The Students: Ah come on Teach! We're just making sure it's dead!

(TR's eyes suddenly spring open and drives its two hands into the student's chests. Pulling out their hearts and it quickly stands up. Looking at Able, everyone looks on in shock)

(It leans forwards ready to spring when suddenly... a thing but wide blade goes straight through its neck)

(The one who drove the blade in was Sam, using The Rogue Scythe. He came up at TR from the air, he jumped from a rooftop)

(Sam with spins around TR with holding onto The Rogue Scythe still in its neck. Blood sprays everywhere on Sam's face as he drives the Scythe around TR's neck)

(Sam decapitates TR and kicks the head sending it flying towards Able, who quickly summons Excalibur and vertically cuts The Trapezoid's head in half, slaying it)

Wrath: (Talking inside Sam's head) Nice going! Now that was Badass! I can't wait to see Lust in this body... whoops! Sorry! I didn't say anything!

(Sam sheaths The Rogue Scythe on his back and continues walking forwards, with people looking on at him in aw. Blood dripping from his hair)

(A girl faints as Sam walks by her, she is caught by another student)

Able: (Looking at all the students then at Sam) Ha! Looks like you got a few fan-girls! Huh Samuel!

Sam: (As he walks past Able, he presses the college master key on Able's chest and continues walking away) *Tch*

Able: (Looking at the master key) Oh! There it is! (He turns his head to Sam walking away) Don't worry he gets grumpy at times... but he's a real chill guy too!

Evelyn: That I believe... everyone has their up and down days, he's no different.

Able: Yeah... next week?

Evelyn: Next week.

Able: I'll meet you then...
