Guru's Bodyguard Location: Namek Difficulty: Easy (5 posts) Reward:+400 zeni, +2 DP, +10 all stats, +2 Rp Credits Bonus: +5 all stats Available: Always Requirement: Namekian Race Description: Guru's bodyguard usually never leaves his side. He has stood guard over the elder Namekian for years. But even the most devoted need a break once in awhile! Relieve him for a day and ensure Guru's safety. Who knows...maybe you might even have some action. They will only entrust this delicate job to a fellow Namekian. -------------------------- [1/5] Wind crept through the grass beneath Nail's crossed legs where he sat, and kicked his scarf until it ruffled beneath his chin. His hand calmed it down until the wind quit its endeavor. It was time. Eyes closed still, Nail lifted himself from Namek's green grass by pushing his Ki, a newly found pleasure in his life. Once he was a leg's length from the ground, he stretched his legs down, and met Namek with ready feet and took stride toward Guru's home. He had only rested for a few moments, but his travels were still wearing at his muscles. But he could imagine the throne on which his new master sat. Large and foreboding, Guru's seat was a symbol of security in Nail's mind. Stone steps led to a set of white doors, which opened as if they were waiting for his arrival. Nail's expression didn't change, as if he was waiting for them to realize that he had arrived. Guru's chamber was warm. Warmer than the breeze would allow it to be outside. Nail hadn't been inside in so long that the warmth was unsettling. The comfort of it made his skin crawl beneath his clothes. A shadow cast itself across the faces of the warriors standing to Guru's right and left. Nail knelt at the feet of his elder, and waited to hear the voice he had walked so far to hear. The warmth of the room, the tension of the situation, and the fatigue in Nail's body combined into a drop of sweat that dripped down onto the chamber's floor. At the sound of the minute splash, both men, and Nail's mentor all snapped up with a gasp. Rhythmic breath was replaced by exasperated wheezing as the three of them stared at Nail. Were they.. sleeping? Word Count: 300 Word Total: 300 |

[2/5] The two Namekians to Guru's sides stepped forward, and stood in front of Nail, arms crossed. The one on the left's breath was still uneasy as he fought off a yawn. Nail's eyebrows furrowed as the idea of Guru's impenetrable chamber slipped from the pedestal in his mind. The silence of the room seemed so forced. Nail couldn't stand it anymore. He rose slowly to his feet. "Ri-.. Yes, rise, young one. I was about to say that." Guru's words popped forth from his mouth in the midst of a bubble of sleepy breath that floated down and into Nail's nostrils. This is not the wise one I remember. "Master.. *yawn* Master, what would you like us to do with the uninvited intruder?" The left guard's yawn prompted the right one. His biceps flexed in an effort to restrict the sleepy movement. "Nail is no intruder. Are you, son?" His breath is just.. terrible I don't mean to intrude, but don't you think I know that? "Ah! M-Master.. I meant no disrepect," Nail said, his mouth open wide in surprise. Nail took to his knee again, and stared at the floor. He could feel sweat building on his forehead. "He said rise," the left guard stepped closer, his Ki pressure pressed against the top of Nail's bowed head. Nail's feet slid back, struggling to remain planted against Guru's poised protector. "Calm yourself." Guru's words, however pungent, were effective in putting his men at ease. Sorry, these guys are just so serious about their work. And it was so warm in here.. I got sleepy.. Professional guards? Asleep? I'm glad to be here, then. I am their replacement. For now, at least. Oh, good. I've become so bored with these two. Never sleep. Never eat. Always, "Did you hear that, Master?" or "Master, can we get you something". That's why I had to put them to sleep. The sweat building on Nail's forehead all dripped down audibly as Nail's childhood hero guffawed. Word Count: 331 Word Total: 631 |

[3/5] Nail stood vigilant, back to Guru, listening to the sounds of his new assignment: The sounds of distant footsteps faded as Guru's bodyguards left the building, replaced by the sound of Guru's deep breathing. Not a sleeping pattern, but, rather, a slow, calming wave. Nail could feel the contemplative nature of this old Namekian that he was charged to protect. Guru was slowly scanning the planet, with his senses. A strong mind, Guru was aware of everything that was happening on Namek. There could be no surprises here. This, too, set Nail at ease. The deep breathing continued. In. Out. Guru was meditating. Nail was amazed at the simplicity of it all. Here Guru was, always ready; and always training. Nail thought of joining in. He had dreams of a calm, steady mind. Too often in life, Nail found himself nervous and surprised. The only time he felt composed was during battle. He closed his eyes, and let the warm air of Guru's chamber fill his lungs and his mind. Om.. His tensed shoulders relaxed downward, and Nail felt his crossed arms slip a little. He didn't do anything to reset his stance. Om.. A warm breeze brushed against Nail's skin. It wasn't like the wind outside. His skin didn't react to this movement. There was no consequence to this air. It did not try to move or to erode. It just existed, and its unimposing nature made it so Nail didn't think twice as to how there could be a breeze in a closed chamber. Om.. "Nail. Ready yourself." "Sir?" "We are not alone." Nail took stride toward the door of Guru's chamber. The warmth of the room was siphoned outward with each step. The calm stillness lost, Nail felt his body tense for the imminent encounter. I am ready. Word Count: 301 Word Total: 932 |

[4/5] Nail pushed the door to Guru's chamber outward and looked around the corner toward the stairs. There was no one. Footsteps trailed down and away from him. "Should I go after them?" "No, I suppose they will be right back up. Some unfinished business, I suspect." "Master?" "Sometimes, in the haste of life, people arrive unprepared for what may be ahead." "I don't understand." "Give it time. Come back from the door. They will arrive when they arrive." The room began to regain its former warmth. The cool air that crept in through the chamber door was receding, and Nail was relieved to feel it leave. He couldn't even sense the power of whoever had approached. The shrouded nature of the situation made him uneasy. And, although he would have fought until his death if that's what it meant to keep Guru safe, he couldn't help but think that it wouldn't have been enough. "I couldn't sense their power." The footsteps rang through the room again, this time towards them. Nail's muscles tensed beneath his clothes and he turned toward the door again. Slowly, the chamber's door swung out, revealing a shadowed figure. It stepped forward through the threshold, and paused. Guru's breath hung in the air around Nail. A quarter step forward was all it took before he lunged forward, propelling himself through the air with his Ki. As his flight brought him closer to the shadowed figure, the room's dim light revealed a Namekian. Not a strapping Warrior. Just a slender Namekian who looked slightly younger than Nail. He stood, with several boxes, tied at the top. The impact of Nail's fist against the young man's right cheek sent him headlong into the front facing wall of Guru's chamber. Dust of decades past fell down on top of him before the room fell silent. Nail's feet found their way back to the chamber floor as his body relaxed from his assault. The bottom of his right foot landed cleanly, but his left was encompassed by some sort of slimy substance. Slowly, Nail looked down and saw his foot, completely buried in a pile of white rice and brown sauce. "M-Master?" "Our lunch, son." "Oh, no! I'm s-," Nail started to say, moving toward the fallen delivery boy before slipping in the rice, and falling face-first onto the container of sauteed fish. "-orry.."

[5/5] "Ow ow ow ow ow," the delivery boy's words echoed through the chamber as he hopped up and down on his feet, holding his jaw. Tears gushed from his eyes and his stationary hop began to move forward. Slowly, he gained momentum and before Nail knew it, he was watching the delivery boy motor around the chamber, crying like an automated sprinkler. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Nail gave chase, not thinking of what it must look like to Guru: His bodyguard, chasing the lunch delivery boy around the chamber, which was now covered in rice, sauces, fish, and dust from the ceiling. Nail's hand wrapped around the sobbing boy's arm and they both stopped running. "Was that you that walked up the stairs? Right before you came in here?" "Yesh," the boy's words were being contorted by his now swelling face. "I forgot to closth the front door before comingth upsthairs." So, that's why it got so much cooler in here... "BAH HA HA HA!" Guru's chest expanded and contracted with each loud laugh that came from his mouth. A single tear fell from his eye, and down onto his robe. "Come here, my boy." The delivery boy walked towards Guru's outstretched hand. Upon his arrival, Guru clasped his giant hand around the boy's head, weaving the antennae through to the webbing of his fingers. A light came from between their skin, and radiated outward. Nail heard a faint sound that accompanied the act of Namekian healing techniques, and he knew right away what his master was doing. Fixing his error. "Better?" "Better," the boy said, his voice back to normal. "Good. Now, thank you very much for your trouble. Tell your parents that I am pleased with your work, and that I can't wait to see them next week." The delivery boy bowed so far down that his head almost hit the floor. He avoided the mess by the door on his way out. "Master. I'm sorry. I only meant to-" "Please. Nail, stop. That was one of the funniest things I've seen in years. I count myself very lucky to have a bodyguard such as yourself." "Guru.." "Now, just clean up your mess, and you are free to go. The men you relieved should be back soon. Back to boredom, I suppose." Nail could feel the sweat beginning to form on his forehead again. He was so embarrassed. This was his first assignment for the great master Guru, and he ruined it. His hands trembled in the midst of his nerves until he was done with his assignment. When he was done, Nail silently got up and left Guru's chamber. The two guards passed him by on his way out, and when Nail was halfway down the stairs to the front door, he heard speaking. "How was your day, Master Guru?" "Same old. When you get to be as old as I am, there aren't many things you've never seen before." Nail smiled as he let himself out the door, where the wind met him once again.

When should I be seeing Bonuses? It's been more than a week. 2 RP Bonus posts have gone up since I finished this. Would really like to be able to claim my first quest and choose a fighting style. Thanks. EDIT: My bad, only one update has gone up since this was done. Misread the bonus board. But still would like to know. |
