Thug’s view:
I’m a thug, I admit it. I live my days inspiring fear in others and taking advantage of it. It’s a pretty good life. I get to drink as I like, I get food, and free use of the brothel. Today, my life changed.
I’d just been hanging out with my fellows at the entrance to the boss’s home (he always likes to have guards outside), when a strange group showed up.
Thug:
“Hey, we don’t like strangers hanging around. Scram!”
As they were ignoring me, I walked up to them only to hear a shout behind me. Looking back I saw everyone who’d been inside appear in front of the building as it suddenly got replaced by a completely different and even bigger building. It was solid stone, like the buildings in the main shopping district… what the fuck just happened?
Boss:
“Hey! What’s the meaning of this?”
Mysterious woman (Terra):
“This lady” *points to a beauty near her* “was given permission from the lord to set up a house anywhere she wants. This place was chosen.”
Boss:
“She’s not under protection is she?”
Mysterious woman (Terra):
“She is not.”
Boss:
“Then I just have to kill her, and she won’t need a house anymore!”
The boss then walked up and swung his sword down at her. I assumed that’d be the end of it. I’ve seen people cleaved in two by the boss before. My assumption was wrong. Very wrong.
The sword not only failed to cut the beauty in two, she caught the sword with her bare hand.
Beauty (Ariel):
“Do I need to kill you, or will you step down?”
Boss:
“Hmmm… You aren’t human, are you. Probably think you can do as you like since it’s just humans here. Well, you’re wrong.”
Huh? Not human? What’s he talking about?
That was when I saw. Boss transformed into a giant tiger and immediately bit down on her. Too stunned to think, I just stared. Is, she dead? Nope. A sword poked out from the top of the boss’s head, then swung round, cutting the front half of his head off.
As the Tiger fell, in the middle of the mess remained the beauty standing there. Despite all the blood around her, there was none on her. Completely unmarred by the assault, and unaffected by the mess on the floor. The sword in her hand was a beautiful clear sword that looked like it was made of glass. Was I staring at an angel? She then cast her gaze over the rest of us...
Ariel:
“There has been a change in leadership. I advise finding work that doesn’t involve threatening others.”
I simply nodded my head and fled the scene. That was too much. I don’t think I want to be in this city anymore. That sight is going to haunt my dreams. I’m not sure what’s scarier, the boss turning into a giant tiger, or the beautiful angel cutting his face apart like one would cut a watermelon. The expression on her face was like she was just taking out the trash. A mild annoyance. How can that be a mild annoyance?! I don’t want to be in this town anymore.
