[h1][center][color=00FFFF]NOI[/color][/center][/h1] Noi’s swing went wide the impact only barely slowing its velocity. He staggered from the momentum, but didn't let himself fall forward. He looked to see what exactly he had hit. The flaming hay-storm obscured his quarry at first, but undeterred by flames Noi marched toward the cries.The squishy barrel shaped mollusk was writhing around in panic. [color=00FFFF]“I have se-en yu… ca’at recall…”[/color] Noi’s voice was shaky and stuttered. His long term memories were still offline to protect them. He rumbled with anger. This dungeon had only been trouble. Monsters and more monsters and… well he wasn’t sure what else came before that, but likely it was terrible too. He stepped up to the creature and bringing his hammer down from overhead flattened it. Lifting his hammer back up Noi watched the creature unsquish itself. So again with a massive downward swing Noi smashed the monster. Unsurprisingly it sprang back up. Noi dropped the hammer staring down the annoying squishy thing. With a furious roar he began to lay into the creature with punch after punch blow after blow. No matter what the creature just squished down absorbing the blows. [color=00FFFF]“Just splat!”[/color] Noi roared growing more and more pissed. Furious Noi decided he had been too merciful. There was a mouth of some sort on the top of the monster. Noi reached into the mouth so the creature was up to his elbow. Now wearing it like a glove Noi repeatedly smashed the monster into the wall. Ooze and blood went everywhere as the monster was slowly torn apart. Throwing it off his arm Noi roared triumphant. [color=00FFFF]“By hylia be damned you stupid... stupid… thing!”[/color] The thing lied dead off to the side. With its side ripped open a small bit of metal could be seen. Noi grabbed it to find a small kite shield. It was damaged, dented, and rusted, but just to spite the thing Noi decided to keep it. Noi let out intermittent rumbles similar to laughing. Turning to his compatriots Noi was blissfully unaware of the sheer chaos going on behind him. Both the Hylian female and Rags were gone, a rotted humanoid with sickle shaped claws was closing in on the child, and hands were falling from the ceiling towards the remaining others. There was no way he could reach the rotten monster without trampling the little one, and the hands were too high for him to engage them. He couldn’t just stand there though. The strong hylian had a chance to save the little one. Holding his hammer like a javelin threw it as hard as he could at the hand dropping towards Jaege. It smashed the hand against the wall making it twitch and writhe. The hand flew back up into the darkness while the hammer fell to the ground. [color=00FFFF]“Hylian, Jaeger, Protect the little one!”[/color] Noi shouted as he started moving that way as well.
