Vengeance Difficulty: Easy Reward:+300 zeni, +1 DP, +10 all stats, +1 rp credit, -2 evil alignment. Description: Tatsu Markil was once a great martial artist. Until a rival clan lead by Crin Blackheart killed him. They feared he would win the national tournament and take away their glory as he did the year previous. Jenna Markil, Tatsu's wife, has hired you to hunt down the Blackheart Clan and kill them all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For a week Pumpkin had been enjoying himself as he started his training with the venerated Master Roshi. It had taken a while at first to convince the Master to train the blood-thirsty warrior, but eventually they reached a compromise. Each week that Roshi instructed Pumpkin, the Saiyan would have to go out and do one “good deed”. As the week neared its end, Pumpkin had to fight off the urge to go out and slaughter innocents. Instead he was searching for a different kind of prey. As Pumpkin wandered through a nearby town, he found it very difficult to approach the locals. Whether it was his battle armor, his stature, or his stench; no one wanted to answer the Saiyan’s questions. Pumpkin was growing more and more irritated with each cold shoulder and had to repress the urge to rip the head off of everyone in the whole village. Brooding and high-tempered, the Saiyan ducked into a bar to cool down. There, Pumpkin slumped away into the corner. As he sat he stared at the vermin floating around him. Worthless humans living worthless lives. Pumpkin thought how meaningful each one of their deaths could make them. How venerated they would become as a trophy of Pumpkin’s mighty triumphs. His thirst needed to be quenched. Roshi would be upset, no doubt, but his bloodlust was undeterred. All he saw now was red. Gripping the table forcefully, Pumpkin prepared to spring forward. Scanning the room he tried to focus in on a helpless target. The Saiyan’s jaw is limp in anticipation and a puddle of drool forms beneath him. His eyes are mad and red. His breathe hot and heavy. The time is right. Then, as if a bell had rung, the crowd was suddenly silenced. Pumpkin turned in amazement as a cloaked woman walked in through the door. Dressed all in black, she mesmerized all who saw her. Pumpkin’s lust subsides. |

With a sudden movement, the woman then reaches into her robe and pulls out a red scroll. She holds it out in front of her, her face hidden in shadow. She then speaks, and her voice is heavenly. I hold here a death contract for Crin Blackheart. He has killed my husband and defiled his name. For any man who kills Blackheart and brings him to justice, I will reward 300 zeni! There is silence for only a moment, and then a spectator in the crowd says something drunkenly. You’re Jenna Markil, huh? No more husband to defend you? You really think anyone here is stupid enough to attack Crin Blackheart? Go home. Bury your husband. And let us drink in peace. Insolent swine! But the crowd just mumbles and soon the whole room returns to its normal volume. All have turned away from the widow, who is left standing still and alone. The only one still staring at her is the Saiyan in the back. Their eyes meet. Pumpkin feels his heart bounce. The woman nods, Pumpkin returns the gesture. Making her way through the crowd, Janice takes a seat across from Pumpkin. She makes a point of keeping her face well covered. She bows to the Saiyan. Pumpkin can only stares back stupidly. You must forgive me. You see…our honor has been defiled. The name Markil… It is okay. Pumpkin’s voice was crude and slow. His demeanor both rough and askew. The whole time a big stupid grin slapped across his face. You will do it then. You will kill Crin Blackheart for me? Pumpkin will kill anyone. It is Pumpkin’s good deed. Good deed? Pumpkin reaches across the table and swipes the red scroll away from the woman. He then opens it and inspects it carefully. Then shoving it into his armor he stands up to go. That’s it then? Don’t you want to know why he killed my husband? Don’t you want to know what you’re up against? How many men he has? Anything? No. And that was that. Abruptly Pumpkin shoved himself away from the table and was out the door. All the woman in black could do was stare. Even hidden under her head, a dire look of concern could be seen shifting in the shadow. |

Finding Blackheart and his clan was easy. The red scroll had given directions directly to the hideout making Pumpkin’s job very simple. But now, as he stood outside it looked like tiny fortress, he was starting to have minor doubts. For one, how was he going to get in? I suppose the same way anyone gets in. Pumpkin thought to himself. And with that, he knocked. Standing rather stupidly at the door, Pumpkin then waited. No one came. So Pumpkin knocked again, this time louder. Still no one came. Pumpkin sighed deeply. He stared at the door and then pulled out the red scroll. Pumpkin double-checked his position, and then sighed again. This time a smile arose. Alright then. Cocking back his fist, Pumpkin then pounded hard on the large wooden door. Splinters sprayed everywhere, and Pumpkin felt his fist go right through to the other side. Up to his shoulder, he now stood with his arm through the door. The Saiyan grinned and felt around for a latch on the other side. As Pumpkin blindly felt around for the lock, he then felt a sharp scratch. Yelping, the Saiyan pulled his arm out of the door and peered through the whole. On the other side was a pair of eyes. What do you want? Pumpkin was rubbing his arm. It had not been scratched, but there was a little redness. And the Saiyan was particularly pleased by it. You scratched me! Yeah! And you put a whole through the door! Pumpkin was not amused. Things were not going smoothly, and the scratch on his arm had only fueled his temper. As he stared at the eyes on the other end of the door all he could think of was how much he wanted to pull them out. So he did. Rapidly reaching his hand through the hole, Pumpkin plunged his forceful fingers into the man’s head on the other side. With a powerful yank he then pulled with a veracity that caused blood to stream everywhere. There was the sound of desperate yelling, and when Pumpkin pulled his hand back he saw an eyeball resting in his palm. With the tightening of his fist, he turned it to jelly. Dashing toward the door, Pumpkin then bombarded through it. The man on the other side toppled over due to the force. He squirmed on the floor clutching his hand to his face. Blood was everywhere. Pumpkin breathed heavy and smiled as he looked down at the fallen guard. Sounds then, from the hall. Pumpkin turned and his grin only grew widen as he saw the approaching shadows of a horde of angry clan members. |

When Pumpkin first saw the clan members, he had to suppress some laughter. He snickered as they approached, each dressed in what looked like purple pajamas. The clan would surely be quick to correct Pumpkin, that their uniforms were fact “karate gui’s”, but the Saiyan couldn’t be less interested. Besides, they would never get the chance to tell him anyway. Armed to the teeth with an array of weapons, from swords to handguns, a gang of clansmen charged Pumpkin without halting. In fact, Pumpkin was rather taken back by their ferocity, and was surprised as a throwing star bounced off his armor. Stepping into a battle stance, the Saiyan prepared himself. The first two fighters suffered the worst fates. Pumpkin still had his strength and was able to disembowel them with his bare hands. As blood and entrails sprayed the scene this mildly deterred the other fighters. Pumpkin now, however, had less time to dispatch of his other foes. Blades of various forms struck his skin and Pumpkin winced with each blow. His rage was building, however, and with each kill a euphoric state seemed to empower the warrior further. Reaching out his meaty hands, Pumpkin wrapped his fingers around the throat of one foe and twisted his wrist causing the throat to collapse. He then spun and brought down his heel into another enemy causing his knee to shatter. The battle was invigorating and with each opponent Pumpkin was growing increasingly more inventive. By the end of the first wave, six of the men had been so badly mutilated that their extremities had been shoved into other men’s orifices. For any normal warrior, the sight would almost be too grisly. But for Pumpkin, this was art. Scratched and mildly beaten, Pumpkin finished the last of his current opponents by feeding his own intestines to him. As his lifeless foe fell to the ground, Pumpkin then continued forward. Ahead of him he could here a rumbling. The sound of perhaps a hundred angry voices. |

As Pumpkin rounded the corner he found himself staring at a courtyard full of warriors dressed in “purple pajamas”. Each had a face of stone and fell silent when they saw the grinning Saiyan warrior. A distinct tension was in the air. Who dares infiltrate my fortress! Pumpkin looked up and could see an imposing figure from across the courtyard. Dressed in a purple robe, the man was clearly Crin Blackheart. A gold necklace hung from his neck and his fists seemed to be plated with metal as well. Reaching into his armor, Pumpkin pulled out the red scroll and held it up in the air. He then tossed it into the courtyard and grinned. So, Jenna has sent someone to do your dirty work. Do yourself a favor friend and leave here before I’m forced to wipe the floor with you. In response, Pumpkin just crouched down and then leaped into the courtyard. The men standing in it parted, as Pumpkin fell with a thud. All of the clansmen then pressed themselves against the walls making a large circle around the Saiyan warrior. Very well then. Let this be a lesson to all the enemies of the Blackheart clan. You mess with me, prepare to pay! Blackheart leapt into the air and ripped his robe off of his body. It fluttered in the wind as he jumped down to confront Pumpkin. Pulling the gold chain from his neck, Blackheart swung it like a mace at the Saiyan warrior. Throwing up his arm, Pumpkin felt the medallion of the necklace strike his forearm. The necklace then swung around again and struck Pumpkin in the side of the head. In a spray of gold it shattered as it collided with the Saiyan’s thick skull. Pumpkin staggered to the side and was blinded momentarily by the array of gold. Glancing over, Pumpkin saw Blackheart standing there with the remainder of his gold chain in his hand. Angrily he tossed it behind him and into the crowd. So you’re tough. Let’s see if I can’t crack your shell! |

Blackheart charged forward, and Pumpkin prepared for the attack. But to Pumpkin’s surprise, Blackheart drew back his fist and just as it was about to strike a ray of energy shot out. The blast collided with Pumpkin’s arm and burned the Saiyan’s flesh. Blackheart then twisted around, and a sword of energy shot out of his hand, the energy blade then cut into the Saiyan’s armor causing it to splinter. The clan leader laughed. But the moment was short lived. Pumpkin was used to battling users of ki. Using his brute strength alone, Pumpkin shot his palm forward and wrapped it around the grinning face of his opponent. Pushing back, Pumpkin then pivoted and drove a heel into his enemy’s gut. Leaping Pumpkin then caught his enemy again with his opposite foot, this time under the chin. The fight was now in full swing. To all who witnessed there was no doubt that Blackheart’s moves were flawless. His use of basic ki attacks was perfect. Each movement had been practiced a million times and was executed with precision. And Pumpkin couldn’t be more different… Each move was sloppy and driven by rage alone. It all seems far too improvised. Luckily, the Saiyan had both strength and toughness on his side. As many times as Blackheart struck the Saiyan, it barely seemed to affect the warrior. For each successful hit of Blackhearts, Pumpkin’s were almost ten times as powerful. After only 10 minutes of fighting, the mere human was losing steam. After a particularly destructive combo that only seemed to cause the Saiyan to stumble, Blackheart dove back panting heavily. His bruised body was throbbing and blood rolled down his chin. Pumpkin just stared at him in return. His own body was dirtied and bloody, but it seemed to only fuel the gritty warrior more. Pumpkin grinned wide, blood between his teeth. You truly are the devil, and I must destroy you! Giving the last of his energy into this next attack, Blackheart charged forward with his fist cocked back. A large array of ki energy encircled the hand as he dove through the sky. Pumpkin just stood there stupidly, his body relaxed and still. Like a bolt of lightening, Blackheart drove his ablaze fist into Pumpkin’s chest. The Saiyan’s body caved. Light was everywhere. |

As the light faded, Blackheart fell to his knees both weak and surmounted by pain. Beside him, the fallen body of the Saiyan lay. Wheezing, Blackheart spoke. Let this be a lesson to all those that dare face me. I can not be defeated, I can be defe--- There was then a shifting from Pumpkin, followed by laughter. Rising up, Pumpkin stood over the fallen Blackheart. A giant hole was in his armor where the human had struck him with his attack. H-How? Never underestimate Saiyan engineering. Pumpkin then glanced over and saw the red scroll discarded nearby. Pumpkin walked over and plucked it from the ground spinning it around in his fingers. This is for the woman in black. Grabbing Blackheart’s limp head by the hair, Pumpkin lifted the warrior’s face from the ground. With violent force, Pumpkin then stuffed the red scroll down the human martial artist’s throat. Blood spilled out onto the courtyard tiles. Rising, Pumpkin held up his blood covered hand and looked around at the clan members surrounding him. Each looked more mortified than the one next to them. Now, now, what to do? -------- When Pumpkin got back to Roshi’s he told his master of his adventure. The Master only shook his head in disapproval. Pumpkin. I told you to do a good deed. This hardly constitutes. But you didn’t hear what I did with the clansmen. Something tells me I don’t want to know. Well, I returned to Jenna with the body of Blackheart. And then brought her before the clansmen, and made her their leader. Now she is one of the most powerful woman in the nation. So Pumpkin did good…yes? I don’t know about that, Pumpkin. But it’s close. For you, it’s pretty dare close. With that Roshi got up and left Pumpkin to think alone on his actions. Once alone though, Pumpkin reached into his damaged armor and pulled out the deeply bloodied red scroll. Holding it under his nose, he sniffed it and smiled maliciously. THE END |
