Chapter 70 - Sleeping Beast

Ash woke up a few hours later feeling a crunch beneath him so he got up his arm was still gone so it was a bit harder then it would've have been to get up

He slowly removed his mask his hair becoming white again

"Man I'm so tired."

He let himself breath for a moment before looking around at his environment

And he felt something constantly blow in his face so he put on his cloak but not the one from the organization but the other white cloak the that had the hood.

It was dark out so he couldn't see much then he stood up

And he covered his face trying to block constant dust being thrown in his face

He trudged through what ever terrain he was in ash felt like he was walking for miles.

Ash sat down for a moment letting the moment settle in he sat up

Sighing "it never ends,does it?" He stood up and kept walking the cloak completely covering his lost limb he came across what look like a camp and walked closer but not one was there and tents were broken and beds were soaked and tore apart it looked like a crime scene.

He looked around until his eye caught something a lantern "finally something good" he used a bit of energy to make a fire and lighted up the lantern and he looked around and he realized.

"I'm in a desert!."

The realization hit him like a lightning volt he continued walking and he needed somewhere to rest for the night ash didn't know what to do since he was in the middle of nowhere but then he saw something a cavern.

Some place he could lay his head so he kept walking once he made it he slowly walked inside to see if it was safe he looked up and saw something weird almost as if an animal was there he shined the light and he realized how many they truly were and they turned around and looked at him.

"Bats!."

He ducked while the bats scattered away from the light after the final bat left ash looked around trying to find a spot to sleep

He placed his lantern on the ground before taking the spot next to it and he wrapped his cloak around him.

"How do I end up in these situations?" He complained

He fell asleep.

The next day he woke up light beaming into his eyes he looked around still a bit groggy from last night's event his body felt heavy and he still felt tired but he needed to move so he trudged across the sand.

The lantern at his side his mind landing back when he heard those voices "it's like I couldn't control myself."

He looked up and saw a huge mountain in the middle of the desert which was off so he put on his mask just incase a fight broke out "why would anyone wanna live here?."

He walked up the mountain holding his blade with his left hand

"It's gonna get hard to get used to this until something pr someone can gro my arm back" He continued walked until he stumbled across a pile of bones lying on the ground he looked at it and took off his mask for a cleared look of everything.

Ashes hair was stilling getting in his face so he moved it behind his ear

"I can't wait to cut it or something" he looked around trying trying to find anything of value in the sack of bones that laid rest "'these bones look human....but what could've causes this."

He looked up and saw a cave entrance "another cave.."

He frowned but he realized it was getting darker and he looked up to see dark clouds overshadowing the sun,ash stood up and lit up the lantern and walked in the cave for a minute nothing could be seen inside until he looked yo the right to see a sleeping giant.

He tried not to make any noise so he tried to tip toe away but his foot stumbled the wrong way making him slip and the lantern dropped,the beast eyes shot open with pure anger as it's body rose from the ground

"Of course I had to trip just of course.."

The beast leaned closer to ash and squinted trying to see ashes teeny body compared to its own and it roared in his face his hair blowing back

"Word of advice you need a breath mint...badly" Ash said but he was smacked away and almost fell off the cliff.

"Ack!...that hurt" Ash groaned he tried to pull himself upwards but his hand couldn't get a grip so he lifted his leg and swayed back and fourth and swing himself over the edge "sit beasty beasty.."

He tried to ask nicely.

Ash took out his blade slowly trying not to agitate it even more then it already was "Lumina" he asked and she appeared "yeah?"

He lifted his head signaling her and she looked up and her jaw dropped

"Not again ash!" She yelled making the monster even more angry.

She turned back to the monster watching it as steam came out it's nostrils

"Ok so whatsoever you need me to do?"

She looked at him "fight and can you heal my arm"

She nodded and snapped healing his arm and outing a white bandage around his entire hand "there you go...now let's kick this things but"

She put her palm and fist together.

They ran at the beats but ash slid under its legs while she shot beams

At it it roared but not in pain but annoyance and it tried to swat her but she flew up into the sky dodging it attack ash looked at its body trying to find the most affective way to attack it.

"It's huge had grey fur big horns and to big teeth coming form it's mouth and looks somewhat like a yeti."
