Bounty Hunter Test Part 4

AN: Here is the next part. Part 5 is the end of the Bounty Hunter Test, which has been one long ass section of thinking on my part. One it sets up a few things for later chapters, while the other part of it requires me to remember shit I forgot to write down. Anyways enjoy this chapter!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Not too Far from Ethan-

"Ok. I should've realized that it would be easier to find him with the giant fucking tiger. In hindsight, I should have expected it. Especially since the man above sent me to check on him. Alright time to find my grandson!" - ?????

The man wearing a mix of semi-heavy armor that is sliver and gray in appearance. Another thing to note was the bright light emanating from inside the mask, being mainly a mix between red and white. Alongside the armor was a blade similar to a Chakuto/Ninjato, matching the color scheme.

The man after running for a minute or two momentarily stopped, noticed dirt and debris rising up into the air not to far from the creature. Deciding that would be the most likely location of his grandson he rushed forward, going slightly faster than before clearing any debris that got in his way.

-With Ethan-

'Damn. That hurt.. a lot. Humungousaur's body.........mitigated. a.. Large... portion of the damage done, had I. been.. in a different... transformation,.... I. ..shake at.... the.... thought. Anyway I need to get...up and fight back.'

"Alr..ight. Time. To. Get... Up!", Ethan says getting louder with each pause. Slowly but surely he lifted his left arm, making the spike go deeper, while allowing him some freedom to rip out the other spikes. Each spike hurting his body more than the last, with the legs being the worst, and followed by that was the holes left from where the spikes were. When all the spikes were pulled out his body the holes slightly closed up, with blood pouring out slower than before.

Ethan finally got up to find the creature staring at him not too far away, with a grin that would make any person feel fear if they weren't prepared. For Ethan, it was just another test his will had to undergo for him to end his trauma. Luckily it didn't affect him as much as before, only making him shiver slightly before he regained a slightly bent, but empowered posture. What Ethan didn't realize was the smile that slowly formed on his face as the transformation seemed to grow even bigger than before. Eventually he reached about 80 feet, which should have been impossible for the original, however he was not the original.

Getting close to the tiger Humungousaur-(Ethan) grabbed the paw and slowly but surely seemed to lift the creature. Finally, he was able to throw it over his back slamming it into the ground, causing the tiger to roar and lose its smug smile. Not giving it time to get up Humungousaur-(Ethan) jump on top of it delivering blow after blow to the chest area. Causing a small but noticeable cracking sound to resonate with each punch, only to stop when the creature seemed to get use to the pain.

Once it got use to the pain, it quickly brought it's head forward to bite a part of Ethan, only to miss as Ethan jumped ship. This allowed the creature to get back up, as it seemingly took no damage, however one would be able to see blood marks here and there along its chest. Meaning it could be hurt by Ethan's current state, this hope like earlier was yet again crushed as the familiar beeping sound made its way to both Ethan and the creatures ears. Like a hummer the beeping noise made Ethan finally crack, his body slumping down to the ground transforming back into his human self.

His body which seemed to tank all the earlier damage, was riddled with cuts scrapes and slight holes. Even the endless stamina he had slowly vanished into nothing, as it hurt to move even a little. Knowing he could do nothing to stop the creature, and that he was at its mercy looked at his watch as if suspecting it to pull some miracle. Which never came, only the bright red light signifying his critical situation, making his eyes gain a dull color as he closed them. The creature slowly opening its maw and drawing near ready to rip him apart.

The gruesome pain Ethan had expected to feel before death never seemed to come. Opening his eyes he was not met with a large threatening creature, instead it was a person in sliver/gray armor with a large magic shield holding the creature back.

"Hey kid. Its been a long time. I'm sorry I couldn't see you after your eleventh birthday, a bullet to the skull from gangsters doesn't help.", the man inside the armor says sounding slightly sad at the end.

"I...s it you uncle..... Carlos?", Ethan says slightly energetic to himself a few moments earlier.

"Damn kiddo. Can't tell me you forgot me. Oh! It might be this helmet ,let me just take that off!", the man under the armor says reaching up for the helmet, and taking it off. (AN: I forgot to add the picture of the man who saved Ethan in earlier chapters from the tiger. I apologize, as this is that person. P.S. - He's not really related to Ethan.)

"Sadly there is not much time for chit-chat, as this beast is slowly breaking my barrier. Luckily, I have a temporary gift from the man above. His words were, "This will deal with an unexpected problem later on in Ethan's adventure, however he shouldn't be excited as the transformation is temporary. All I can give him in it as he has yet to unlock it is ten minutes.", and that leads us to the situation now. Any way here!" - Carlos, after finishing his sentence threw Ethan a small USB like chip, which after landing in Ethan's hand made the Omnitrix emit a sound.

The sound opened up a small slot right next to the green button used to pop up the dial. Slowly Ethan put in the chip making the Omnitrix emit the start up sound and display an alien that could clap that fucking tiger as if it was an ant.
