Rhein probably should’ve expected Saffron to try and make excuses for why he couldn’t bring him the Fragarach. Odd how he specifically chose Grimhildr, since the Dragnan girl was, well, [i]driving the Prowler[/i]. He winced as he watched Saffron stab the boar, a process which he was consistently surprised by as far as how quick the Dragnan was about it. [color=Silver]”If you’re gonna try and disrupt ‘em, I’d prefer you were a bit subtle about it. Don’t need anyone thinking we’re a pack of wild animals.”[/color] he stated, giving Saffron permission to mess with their competition, albeit with the caveat that they needed to at least break even as far as their reputation went. 
The Prowler began to swerve when Grimhildr decided to give Saffron a piece of her mind, causing Rhein to almost fall off. In retrospect, it was probably a bad idea to have Grimhildr driving, but the diminutive Dragnan insisted. Just as Rhein was about to warn her about her handling, Grimhildr shouted to the others that it’d be a good idea to hang onto something. [color=Silver]”Whoa, whoa, wait a m---”[/color] suddenly, the rickety eight-wheeler was rolling on four wheels, and the Shabu Shabu Party’s leader was clutching onto the hull the whole time, breathing a sigh of relief as the Prowler came back down onto all eight. 
[color=Silver]”Did you just forget I was up here?!”[/color] Rhein barked, teeth clenched as he hopped down the hatch. At this point, it was pretty clear that he’d have to get the Fragarach himself, since Estelle and Grimhildr were already going to engage the Giga Slime. Muttering to himself, Rhein casually picked up the heavy Accel Blade and strapped it to his right arm. 

Frankly, due to everything that had happened so far, Rhein was pretty content to let everyone else handle most of the work like he usually did. As he climbed back out of the Prowler, he watched as Grimhildr pretty obviously assaulted one of the other crew’s vehicles. [color=Silver]”I said to be subtle, Grim.”[/color] he remarked. Now enraged by the attack from the other crew’s Prowlers, the Giga Slime began to move into action. Reeling one of its gargantuan arms back, the Giga Slime swung it down towards the Shabu Shabu Party’s Prowler, the gelatinous limb elongating as it flew towards the group. At the same time, the Slime actually fired its other hand like a rocket at the other two Prowlers.
[color=Silver]”Somehow, I feel like we’re getting the tougher end.”[/color] Rhein remarked, whistling as the whip-like arm rushed towards the Party. The arm was actually about as thick as the Prowler itself. Annoyed that he was going to have to actually put in work this early, Rhein grasped the handle of the Fragarach’s sword. Once the arm was within a few feet, the Hunter clicked the trigger, causing steam-like jets of mana to erupt from the shield as the blade was released from within, the arc of Rhein’s swing leaving a trail of similar steam as he cleaved down the middle of the arm, splitting it into two halves that fell to the sides of the Shabu-Shabu Party’s Prowler. At the same time, the hatch of one of the other Prowlers opened up and a red-headed, moustached Horvin popped his head up, adjusting the wide-brimmed hat he wore upon his head before pointing a metallic wand with a diamond-shaped protrusion on the end. A Casting Device. The moustachioed Horvin took aim for a moment before a blast of wind tore the gelatinous rocket fist to pieces.

[color=Silver]”It looks like the Slime’s body gets weaker when it stretches or detaches from the main body.”[/color] Rhein called to the rest of the Shabu Shabu Party, flicking slime off of the Fragarach’s rectangular blade and inserting it back into the shield. He said “weaker”, but the tendril of goo had some real weight behind it, and the fist it had launched at the other Party was probably pretty similar. “Weak” wasn’t really an accurate way to put it. More like “easier to deal with”. Which meant that the main body, or the unstretched limbs would be an even bigger pain in the ass. How the hell could a Slime become such a troublesome monster? The Slime’s damaged limbs reformed themselves and it reeled back for another attack, this time going for a sweeping attack to try and take out both crews at once.  As the crews got closer, they would notice bones and lumber floating inside of the Giga Slime’s body, remnants of its prior conquests.
