Cells Divide 15 The Hunting Party

Qu started to run towards the deer, she then fueled her flames so that they spread all over her fingers. The flames on her fingers now able to deal damage. She then went into a full blown sprint, her hands and feet sinking deeply into the wet soil. The deer finally heard Qu running towards her, it looked towards Qu before running, and the moment it looked towards her, a ma.s.sive wave of fear and danger spread through its body. Qu continued to run towards it, and the deer spun and started to run for its life. Qu continued to run after it, she also started to use her dream venom ability. The moment it was activated, the flames on her fingers turned a bright green, as they became enriched with a potent venom. As the venom continued to run through her body and connect with her flames, the skin tight aura she held started to go from the gentle red to a deep green, it now acting as a sort of clothing for her as the green glow started to turn a more solid colour.

With this power running over her body, she started to run harder and faster, and she slowly started to close in on the creature. She continued to advance, as she continued to push her body to go as fast as it can and for as long as it can. Then when she eventually came in range of the deer, Qu leapt into the air and pounced down onto the deer, the flames on her fingers dug into its flesh, and the rampant fire ran into the creatures body. The fire ran through the creatures veins and scorched the veins of the deer, and as this happened the poison in these flames slowly released out of it, allowing the poison to run through its system. The deer started to grow groggy as the venom run through its system and the creatures skin slowly began to give off a tantalising smell of cooked meat as the flames on her body began to cook it, due to her body being pressed up against the deer.

Then in almost an instant later the deer was dead. Qu then engulfed the creature, allowing her to gain its bloodline. She then chose to change into the creature so that the stabilisation period of the creature will be over and done with and won't have to do it later on.

When she chose to evolve the usual message of stabilisation period came up, but this time it said it was only 20 hours. Somehow she had ridden 4 hours off of the time. Then the screen of her status showed itself again:

-----

Name: Qu

Gender: female

Species: deer (stabilising)

State: healthy

Energy: 85/100

Rank: uncommon

Magic: fire (Common level)

-----

It seemed that with her new fire magic it also boosted her energy and broke her from the common rank to the uncommon rank.

Even now when she was in her deer form, she could still feel her fire magic. She then walked off from the area. And found a tall tree with a hole within it. She crawled under and sat down and fell asleep, allowing the stabilisation period to go by a little quicker.

----

A group of hunters where walking through the forest, the group had a warrior welding a average looking sword. It also held a archer with a worn bow. And finally a low ranking wizard that practiced earth magic.

The three where in the forest looking for a creature to kill and harvest for things to sell back at the village. And the wizard of the group said that he felt fluctuating energy in the area, so they thought that their might be a creature mutant that had an aspect to an element, and if they could sell it they could earn a fortune. As the creature can have into elemental crystals and if used they allow the person to increase their magical abilities or even earn a magic.

But when they reached the area they found just the smell of cooked meat and what seemed to be a trail of hands and feet, but later on the trail transformed into deer tracks. But even still, the wizard of group said that there was a lot of fire element in the area, so their suspicion of an elemental creature seemed to be pretty solid.

But seeing that the tracks of the animal is fresh as well as the fire element, they chose to set up camp for the night. As after such a fight, the creature most likely is sleeping off the damage.

So they set up camp, and set up a campfire. They sat around the fire telling stories, making jokes and talking of their dreams...

----

It was morning and Qu awoke, her body still in stabilisation, but not long left. She had gone to sleep near middle of the day, and so she only had about 1 hour left of her stabilisation as she had slept well into the day. She then walked out of the tree, the bright sun being dampened by the canopy of the forest. But still making Qu squint due to the light its producing.

----

The hunting party had been walking through the forest for about 2 hours, going after the tracks. Until the earth wizard of the group told them they were closing in on the location as the fire energy in the air was becoming more wild.

In front of them was a large tree with an opening within it, inside of there was a groove in the ground of where the creature was sleeping. And outside of it where some fresh tracks.

----

Qu continued to walk through the forest, waiting until she could go back to her humanoid form, she now only had 30 minutes left of her stabilisation period.

She continues to walk and walk waiting until she found something to do, as she walked she chose to try and get to know her fire a little better, so she tried using the magic in her deer form. Upon activating her magic, her hooves started to gather a small amount of fire on the bottom of them. Because of this she started to leave a path of smoldering tracks, as she activated her magic the fire element around slowly started to enter her. The longer she held her magic then the more element entered her and with the rate it was going it was leaving a small portion of unused fire element, and so if enough of it was stored then she could possible 'upgrade' her magic.

----

The hunters kept on following the tracks, but still made slow progress, as they had to keep quite incase the deer was nearby. But then something peculiar happened the deer tracks started to smoulder at a certain point in the trail. With this it solidified that the deer was attuned to the fire element, so they chose to quicken their pace by a little bit to make sure that it doesn't escape them.

----

Qu had been walking for 23 minutes, collecting fire element and slowly improving her fire magic but by no substantial amount.

She had about 6 minutes left until she could start walking in her humanoid form. Then she heard a crack of a twig, she looked towards the sound and a Bush was what she was greeted with. But behind the Bush moving pieces of cloth could be seen...there where people tracking her.
