Chapter 7: First And Last Fight?

I chopped the last piece of wood into two and whipped my forehead.

'I'm finally finished.' I cut into the night, but I didn't even notice. 'Now I have to take this all in the house..' I looked up towards our house. 'But first..' My Axe disappeared and I started walking in the opposite direction from my house.

There was a small river up ahead. I don't wanna go home, as I'll get in trouble for staying out to late.

Maybe I should just go home, and accept my punishment.

I walked for about 3 minutes before reaching the river. 'The smell of fresh water..' The water was light blue in color. Fish jumped all around, and I even saw a deer like creature drinking from it down the river.

I walked up to the edge and bent down. I placed my face into the water and smiled. 'I could end it all now..' I stayed in the water with bubbles popping up. 'And so can this bear...' I shot my head back and aimed my gun right in its face.

The 3 meter brown giant roared at me which caused me to shake. 'Damn it. I-I'm scared..' The creature towered over me as my hands were shaking. 'I only ever killed small rabbits. This..This is too much!..'

The bear swung down and hit me in the chest. I flew across the river, like I was a skipping stone, and stopped on the other side. "Ow~" I held my stomach in pain.

The ground then shook. The shaking started getting closer and closer. 'And..I dropped my gun..' My wooden gun was in the river.

'Am I actually going to die?! I was kidding!' My eyes were moving around as the beast reached the middle of the river. 'Wait!' I had a thought. 'Yeah... Yeah That could work!..' I slowly turned myself and crawled towards the river. 'Hurry!'

I screamed at myself and the beast roared. I eventually got the edge and put my hand in the water. 'C'mon luck! P-Please be on my side..'

After a couple of seconds, my black ruins turned blue which caused me to smirk. 'Thank God.' The bear got closer and I pulled my shaky hand out of the water.

A pistol made entirely out of deep blue water appeared. Their were fish design, with wavy lines on it aswell.

The beast put his hand up at me and swung down. 'Now!' I slowly pulled the trigger, and a bullet made of water shot out. It penetrated the bear and it flew out into the sky, leaving a trail of blood flying out into the sky.

That didn't stop it from slowly falling on me however. 'Damn! I'm..Too weak to move!' It fell on top of me and my breathing stopped for a moment. 'AH!' The weight of the beast was crushing my bones. 'A-Am I going to die?!' I kept hearing snaps. The pain kept increasing and my eyes were about to pop out.

'Mommy...' My body twitched and my mind went blank.

"Haruto, Dear. Are you here?.." A sweet voice sounded out. "Haruto?" She came out from some bushes and stared. Over the river, She saw a brown ball lying on the floor. 'Why is a dead?..And where is Haruto?..' She started becoming more worried.

She looked all around and saw a something under the bear. A wave of fear hit her face as she recognized the black markings on its arms. "Haruto!" Her hair instantly flashed light green and it became longer.

Her hair touched the ground and went into it like roots. The ground then went up like a wave, going under the river and reaching the bear. The green roots then shot up and picked the beast up. It threw it away and the green hair woman appeared next to the small boy.

"Haruto?! Answer me!" Her hair covered his body and he glowed. "My baby...No.." Tears fell from her face onto the boy. "Mommy?..." The boy slowly opened his eyes. "Mommy~..." His face scrunched as tears fell from his eyes.

"Haruto! Mommy's here for you, Okay?! Everything's fine okay!" Mother held my distraught face "I'm...Scared mommy.." The fear of dying. The pain as awell... ...It..Scared me.

Each time I'm on death's door, I always die slowly. Feeling the pain of every bone breaking. Feeling my very own blood chocking me.

It makes me Scared..

"Don't be Haruto. Mommy is here for you.." A tree sprouted from behind her and she picked me up. We both then layed against the stump of the tree.

"Wha... Where did this tree come from.." Its presence made me forget about the pain. "I made it silly. Doesn't it look beautiful?" She smiled at me and I stared at her. 'You..Made it?' I thought back to something. 'She has the same features as well...'

I smiled as I realized.

"Mommy. Your...A Dryad?"

I was certain, but I still need to ask. "Yep! Aren't I cool!" She laughed out at with her eyes closed. 'Cool huh?' I slowly started laughing. "Cool is an understatement. Your Amazing Mom!" She heard this and red lines appeared on her face. "Your...Such a smooth talker Haruto."

She kissed my forehead and looked up. 'He took that best down by himself. That's way more amazing than I.' She then looked down at me. "How did you do?" She stared directly into my eyes.

"Defeating the monster?.." She nodded at me. "Well, I shaped the water and formed it into a gun." Mother wasn't familiar with the term 'Gun', before I was born. She asked me where I came up with the term, and I told her that it was just something random.

"I made the bullet smaller to be more precise and deadly. I changed the pressure as well to make sure it penetrated its skin..." The bears fur and skin was super thick. A wooden bullet wouldn't have worked, so I had to quickly think with the 'Making a gun out of water' idea.

"Your amazing Haruto. You use your power in ways that amazes even me." Mother got up with me in her arms. The tree then shook and the outline of a door appeared. "Let's go home. Your not shaking as much, but I can tell your still scared." I shook my head at her.

"M-Mommy is here now. Mommy makes me feel safe..." I became embarrassed, so I looked away. "Jeez...You sure are a playboy aren't you~.." She laughed at me and opened the door. We then walked in and the tree broke down.

....7 years later....

In the hot sun, you could see a boy chopping wood. He had his shirt off and you could see a huge slit that came from his right shoulder, down to his left hip. "Its hot." He whipped his forehead with his forearm and smiled.

'Today's the day right?' He smiled at himself and planted the axe into a tree stump. He took his gloves off and sat them down. "Haruto~." A light voice spoke out to him. "Have you seen your sister?~" He turned around and smiled.

"No Mother. I haven't." He gave her a warm smile and she smiled back. "You've grown so tall, and your voice, Its deeper~..." She walked up to him while smiling.

"You've been working out every day over the past year. Your body's become so toned and hard~..You became even more handsome as well~.." She felt his chest, and he laughed.

"Mother. You got even more beautiful as well.." He then turned away and went into a walking motioned. "Have I? And here I thought I was getting old. You never blush at me anymore, so I was thinking that my festures were getting uglier...."

He kneeled down and and smirked. "Mother could never be ugly. She's the prettiest person in the world." Her face burst into red for a moment then stopped as she saw him grabbing a basket. She saw him placing the chopped wood inside of it.

"Why are you doing that? We aren't staying here any longer." She said that and yet she came over to help him.

"It..Puts me at ease oddly enough." She slightly smiled at his answer and he stood up with the basked of wood on his back. "I'll go find Aiko. You should make sure you have all your stuff packed, Okay?" He smiled at her and began walking away.

"That son of mine.." She walked over to the Axe that was still planted inside of the stump. "He's grown.." Everythong from the shoulder of the Axe to the knob was black. Everything from the butt of the Axe to the Toe was dark blue.

Haruto continued walking down the trail. 'Over the past 7 years, I've changed drastically..' He held his palm out and a black dot was on it. 'And this appeared that day..' He bawled his fist a bit and put his hand back down to his side.

Haruto's power changed a lot. His arsenal now consisted of an Axe, Gun, Sword, Shurikens and a Knife. It may not seem like that many, but it was enough.

[Weapon Mastery.]

Is what he bought in his item shop. He used tokens, coins that he gets from killing monsters, to buy this skill. This was all that he needed to survive in this world for now.

Haruto also trained his body so that he could wield any weapon that he comes into contact with. His muscles were perfect in every way, shape, and form. He muscles were refined and his skin was rough.

After that night, Harutos weapons stayed the color of black and blue. It still gave off the properties of what he touched however. For example, if he copied a wooden Axe, it would stay black and blue, but it would still be as durable as the wood.

Haruto also developed magic, which was said to be impossible by the church. His weapon Creation magic fell under the category of unique magic. Unique magic is anything that isn't one of the main elements. His weapon Creation magic was considered unique, but it was the most common unique type of magic out there.

Well Anyways, He obtained dark magic. Its hardest element to learn, and the hardest to master.

"Oh, brotheeeer.." The trees around him blew, as his sisters voice sounded above him. "Aiko. Stop playing around. Mothers waiting for us." A beam of fire came at me after I said that.

I sighed at her actions and my body disappeared. She pouted at that his actions and said "You never face me head on brother.." A beautiful girl jumped down from the tree branches and landed onto the ground.

"That's because I won already." The ground beneath her cave in and she fell down. She screamed out and a thud noise sounded. "Ouchi.." The beautiful woman rubbed her butt in the pit and someone walked up to the ledge.

"You and your traps. I always fall for them.." She laughed a bit and jumped out. The man backed up and she landed in front of him. "Jeez... Your way too tall, Haruto." She had her hands behind her back with a smile.

Aiko still had her short green hair. She just looked way more mature and feminine now. "Am I?" Maybe being 5'10 as a 12 was odd. I had my original look back by the way. Same void hair with the same golden eyes.

"Your quiet tall youself Akio." She was 5'7 in height now. Her magic power also increased a lot. I think us being part dryad has something to do with why we don't look our age.

"You know..." She walked passed me "I'm going to miss this place. Its holds all our memories, and we're just leaving it behind."

She sighed and I turned around. We both stared at our house in silence. "Why can't we make new ones?" I looked at the side of her face. "We're starting a new journey today, so we'll make many more." I started walking to the house.

'Status.'

Yeah, some stuff changed. Not much though.

We both walked up to the house and through the front door. I placed the wood down near the door and took my shoes off. "I'm going to go pack my stuff." She nodded and I walked over to the stairs. I went up them and arrived at the top in a matter of seconds.

I went to my room and opened the door. I walked into the room and closed the door behind me. I had a circle shaped window that light beamed through. I had a bed right under the window so in the mornings, the light would hit my face, acting as an alarm clock.

I had a small table at the end of my bed which had a single picture on it. It was of Mother, Aiko, and I.

I walked to that table and turned the photo around. I picked it up and stared at it with a smile.

'The day I stole their panties..'

Yes.

I did it again.

I placed the photo down and walked over to my closet. I opened it up and started taking my clothes out. There wasn't much variety to my clothes. It all consisted of black, skin tight pants with a grey, blank shirt. I had had a pair of black and grey boots that stopped halfway up my legs.

'Only what's essential. That's what you said Father' I smiled as I remembered his words.

I took out 5 pairs of the same clothes and threw them on my bed. I took out socks and underwear aswell. "Haruto. Mom said to hurry." She knocked on my door. "Aiko. Can you come in for a moment?" I raised my voice slightly for her to hear.

Apparently my voice kind of deep and was on the quiet side at the same time. I was slowly transforming into you Father.

The door creaked and she walked in. "What is it?" She came over and sat on my bed. "Here. If were going to start a new, then I should give these back." I pulled something out my pocket and put it out at her.

"M-My panties?!" Her face slowly became red. "Why do you have them?!" She snatched them away from me while I laughed. "Wait...These are small! How long have you had these for?!" Her face became even redder.

"Since we were 7." I said the truth to her, and she stared blankly at me. "Jail." She pointed at me. "Your going to jail!" I laughed at her and she got more irritated. "You never take me serious!" Her hands emitted fire which turned the panties to dust. 'Noooooooo!'

I had my best moments with those...

"Die!!" She put her hand out at me and fire balls came out. I jumped back and landed in a small shadow in the corner. I instanly sunk into it and found myself in the living room.. "Haruto?" Mother looked back at me.

"Hey Mom.." I laughed awkwardly, and walked next to her. I sat down on the couch beside her and she closed her book. "What was that noise coming from upstairs." She sat it down on the small table in front of us and looked back at me.

"Don't mind that. Anyways, I have a present for you." I reached in my pocket and took something out. "Surprise.." I showed her these dark green panties and she stared at them. "Haruto?" She looked at me. "Why are you giving these back? You can keep them y'know."

She pushed my hands back with a smile. "Wha.." I became confused. "Yes. I know it's hard for a young man like yourself to stay trapped in the woods with...'No material' per say. That's why I allowed you to keep them all this time."

An S tier Mother.

"O-Okay.." I put them away and got up. "Harutoooo!" She flew down the steps with a red face. "Repent for your crime!" She shot, small fiery bullets, micking actual bullets, and it came directly at my crotch. "Stop it guys.." These tree branches came out the floor board and caught the bullets.

"We can't destroy the house when we're about to leave it.." That's a great IDEA! That's a great idea.. "Haruto. Go pack your bags. Now!" A branch hit my head and I nodded with teary eyes.

"Yes Mother.."
