A Hero Tale: Jeff

As Jeff made his way back towards the old man, he nodded happily and extended his free hand up towards the cave's exit. "Choofa Gorge is the dividing crack in the land that separates the north hemisphere, and the south hemisphere of the world. It spans across the entire earthly continent, ending only a few miles before the great ocean," he explained. "The village of Nino? Can't say I've really heard anything about it, lad. This here's a hermit's brain, eh wot!" He tapped his hairy head and chuckled softly. "Based on your trajectory though, I'd say your Nino village is in the north hemisphere! Can't say I know a bloody thing about the world above anymore, though," He paused and blinked a couple times. The Choofa began waving their little magical bodies back and forth happily and humming a quiet tune. "The Choofa seem happy that you ended up here though! They do so enjoy a new guest every now and again... Ah, I'm afraid I didn't catch your name, if you'd mentioned it! My name is Sir fizzle! I go by Fiz, at least, that's what I used to go by back in My righteous city of Dalenport. Now I'm just a humble old whacko, hah-hah!"

Bobba cursed under his breath when Jenso dashed past all three of his spikes, and prepared to counter attack, but his lungs began to feel heavy as his helmet stayed on. As Jenso stood back up and thrusted his fist forward, Bobba's helmet couldn't stay on any longer. He held it until the last second, at which point the stone peeled back ad he gasped for air, only to take Jenso's fist right to the face. He toppled backwards and rolled towards the exit, and his armor melted away. "Damn it all!" Bobba shouted, barely able to scramble to his feet. "You clever little bastard!" At this point? Bobba's armor reformed, but only partially, leaving his legs, and head uncovered. "Fine! I'll just blow you to pieces!"

With that,Bobba rose his armored hands and began to form black crystals between his fingers. He waited for Jenso to approach, with about three crystal shards in each hand..

Bobba turned around to face Jenso as his two spikes collided and turned to dust. He rose two more from the ground and flung his hand up. Several spikes shot up from the ground towards Jenso, three this time, from his front and both sides.

Jenso had moved Bobba properly, but his jagged knee had made contact with his lower abdomen for a split second, leave a shallow cut below his ribcage. As Bobba was held back, his helmet opened again, and he took a deep breath, but it began closing again before he said anything. The two spikes stopped in front of Bobba, and spun around him, attempting to knock Jenso out of place.

Bobba's armor was too hard for Jenso to break through, and he was too heavy to move. It seemed like Jenso was boxing with a statue, but Bobba lifted his right knee towards Jenso's stomach in and attempt to strike him in the same moment that he aimed to attack. His floating spikes also rose up into the air above Jenso.

Jenso's reflexes proved to be rather formidable, but Bobba was ready. After Jenso dodged the stone and kicked the second projectile at it, the spike was shattered, but Bobba's second spike was already headed for Jenso, and knocked him away from Bobba. He then rose another spike from the ground so that there were still two rotating around him. His mask opened up again, and he took a series of deep breaths. "You are no normal human!" He shouted, his mask closing once again and forming into a helmet. Bobba hesitated for a moment, a little shaken by just how fast Jenso was. But he regained his conposure quickly after.

Jenso's punch didn't do much, send the rock only a few inches back before it slung itself back toward Jenso, this time with its sharp side pointing towards him. Bobba himself didn't move much, but he rose another hand, created a small grey stone in it, and launched it towards Jenso's gut.

Jenso's series of physical moves successfully launched the rock harpoon back at Bobba, but with a flick of his wrist, it was truned to dust in midair. His mask of stone opened for a split moment, and he took a deep series of breaths. "Ha.. Haha! You can't use my element against me!" His mask shut again, crawling over his face like magic and only allowing a tiny slit for his eyes to see through. He then rose his hand again, and another spike shot up towards Jenso with a harpoon like tip from his right side.

Jenso's foot met the stone armor to no avail, leaving barely a crack in Bobba's armor. Jenso could hear Bobba's muffled laugh before one of the surrounding spike rocks spun around Bobba and knocked Jenso right out of the air. The floating sentry rocks wete like spear heads, but only the flat side hit Jenso. Bobba stepped forward sluggishly and thrusted his arm forward, and a spike shot up from the ground at Jenso's head, like a harpoon made of stone.

Chapter 13

_{Song Of Stone And Sulfur}

Bobba tossed his arms into the air and rose two floating spikes from the ground that began to float around him like a two part shield. While this happened, one of his bracelets glowed. The. A second bracelet glowed, and he covered his entire body in a thin layer of grey stone, despite the earth around them being brown in color. He looked like he was in stone armor, and in a moment, he rose his hand again, rising a pillar of stone below Jenso to life him up. At the same time, a pillar dropped from abve. The two would crush him if he didn't move
