The Hunt for the Bestial Keys: Penguin

Kei'taro opened his palm and deposited the warming stone in his mouth, into his hand. He could feel the heat traveling along his palm. He had earned the key, even though he hadn't won the race. The animals always had some other test that they never saw fit to reveal until the end.

Bowing at the waist, he left Pongo to his story. He didn't need to thank him, he was almost certain the bird wouldn't have heard him. He turned in the opposite direction, somewhat, and headed out - dipping back into the water for a swim that was probably dangerous.

He didn't stop to think that the usual spectacle of energy swirling and tattoo imprinting hadn't happened. He was exhausted, and had another objective. When he was passed out from battling Havardr, his father had come into his dreams and summoned him to him. As soon as possible. Honestly, it was the only reason he had chosen this direction in the first place, and had he not, he may not have met Pongo, or Uthur.

Yet, he knew what lay at the end of this trip, Pikatok - and the Gate of the South. One of the only paths he could take this time, as his father hadn't seemed interested in using his substantial powers to bring him to the Spirit World

The Hunt for the Bestial Keys: Penguin

There are several things that go through a person's mind when they are not only swimming through the water, and even more when there is a gigantic swell closing in on you from behind. Not to mention Uthur, a Key Holder, coming after him with sick vengeance. Many of those things are dwarfed by one, the thought of survival.

What Kei'taro didn't expect was to hear a familiar voice. He nearly missed it all, "...as I swim human if you want to live.”. He caught the last one, and was still nearly to slow to put it into action.

Mimicking the actions of King Pongo, he darted downwards and then powered upward, using long strokes of his feet and body to propel himself upward. The hole loomed before him, and Pongo shot out of it like a cannon, or rather a penguin.

Kei'taro didn't dare risk a look back, instead he pushed forward - his joints aflame with pain. With a mighty push, he rocketed towards the hole and gripped the edge, and pushed himself out.

The sensation of the cold air touching his body knocked most of the air out of his body, but he wasn't cold. The warming stone saw to that, but man was it painful. Just as he touched the ground half of the dipped into the water, only for the other half of the ice to slam back into the surface of the water. A visible crack was on the surface of the ice.

Kei'taro turned to look at Pongo, and off in the distance saw Uthur rearing his head over the water, what a swift beast. He would look forward to earning a key from him. He turned his attention back to Pongo, and pointed towards the Floe they were aiming to get to. A quarter mile away, more or less.

"Whatever shall we do," he asked, speaking around the warming stone.

Land of the Bestial Keys

Don't you worry, I'm gonna be gettin' the savin' of a lifetime.

Land of the Bestial Keys

Air cannot go through objects. Water czn easily go over under and around, fire's heat can still burn you, and lightning can go through objects. I cannot block those three things with my arms. I can block air with my arms, a blade formed by the wind cannot ccut through Xzarixx's hard carapace.

@Bartimaeus

Well, if you're sure. Lightning, Water, and Fire are out.

We can start when I wrap up things with Skally.

Land of the Bestial Keys

Why can you block Air, but not the rest?

Land of the Bestial Keys

Soaring Eagle is air based, whereas Dragon and Bass deal fire and water
Pride of Lions, King of Crows, Crazy Monkey, Chameleon, Tortoise, doesn't deal damage

Land of the Bestial Keys

Super sexy coconut monkey!

Hahaha, oh! I thought I could only pick one.

Well, go through and pick the ones he can't use.

Land of the Bestial Keys

As my Key

Land of the Bestial Keys
