"Bastard! Get back here! Don't go over there! Shit!"
He sprinted as fast as he could, left the empty metal container behind and even fired a few red beams with his blaster, but it didn't do much else than turn some sand into glass and make noise. The mound was getting farther away and he could feel Sarry's fear, her anxiety…
"No! Asshole!"
Unfortunately, cursing rarely solved these kinds of problems. Violence was usually the answer. He needed to be a lot closer to 'use' violence however.
Eventually the mound of sand stopped moving as fast and he was about to catch up. The Krayt Dragon didn't slow down because of anything he did though. It was simply a change in the terrain. Before, he was in a vast orange sandy desert. But now the ground was tougher and not far below the surface were plenty of rocks. It could still move, but the speed slowed down to a near stop.
"Hahaha~! That's right! There's nothing to see here! Go back to the sandy desert and don't waste anymore time or energy here!"
*Rooooaaaah~!* The huge head burst out of the ground like a great white shark covered in sharp, jagged bone armor! Then there was an extremely long snake-like neck, followed by two sets of 'short' and 'stubby' clawed limbs. Then three sets of much thicker limbs helped pull the entire massive reptilian monstrosity out of the dry, cracked earth!
"That's cheating!"
It looked over at him and that long tail whipped over, smashing into the ground and sending a wave of sand, rocks and dirt towards his tiny body! He reached out and separated the wave in half, just blocking the parts that would have hit him directly and ignoring the rest. Then he aimed the blaster and fired at that 'small' eye!
"Raaaaaaagh~!"
This wasn't an RPG and there was no Health Pool above the creature's head. A blaster bolt that exploded was powerful enough to vaporize metal and rock, so when it hit the sensitive eyeball, the flesh was also vaporized pretty easily. That gigantic shark-like maw filled with several layers of teeth aimed towards Asmodeus and sprayed a bunch of green caustic venom in his general direction!
"Nope~!"
He quickly ducked behind a huge boulder and lifted his right hand, creating a small curtain to block out the rest of the juices. His heart was pounding and his control over the Force was significantly weaker than usual. Almost like the Dark Side was trying to fuck with him…
"Phew~! Stop thinking, stop thinking, it's just a 40 man raid boss! How would a normal Jedi-er, I mean Sith, handle this shit?"
He looked at the melting blaster rifle in his left hand and smiled wryly, tossing it out into the acid rain. Then he saw the massive tail that whipped over again! He turned his lightsaber to the maximum length of 2 meters and launched it like a spinning red disk! Then he managed to just barely nick the edge of that giant pillar of scales and meat flying towards his head…
"How the fuck did that miss?!"
Although he complained, the beast still roared in pain and he wasn't idle. The sandy, dry dirt cracked open like there was a drill under his feet. Then he quickly disappeared underground before the boulder was smashed into pieces that were launched into the distance like missiles. The massive Krayt Dragon glared down at the dusty ground with its remaining eye, snorting and roaring a few times, before turning back towards the source of that delicious scent. It moved very slowly above ground. Struggling to use all ten legs to crawl forward. Although it was somewhat snake-like, the creature didn't slither much due to all those thick plates of armor.
"Would that be Earth Bending, Earth Release or just 'Dig'?"
Asmodeus used Dig. The Greater Krayt Dragon escaped from battle.
"Oh shit, it's getting away!"
He jumped up out of the hole in the ground and carefully landed on a spot that wasn't still covered in green venom. Though the nauseating stench made his nostrils burn. Then he hopped a few more times, his dirty black robe wide open and flashing everything underneath. As for the belt, that got stuck underground and was unfortunately left behind.
With a brown blaster pistol on his left hand that almost looked similar to a modern firearm from Earth, he started running off towards the 'escaping' giant monster. Kanya flew over into his right hand from behind as he sprinted.
"Hey! I'm still here! Fucker, stop running!"
The massive beast seemed to hear his voice over the sound of its own deafening breathing and footsteps, turning back towards the rapidly approaching tiny red creature. Then it quickly turned its head to avoid the scary green light that rapidly approached! The expensive green blaster bolt exploded when it struck the side of the dragon's giant head, leaving a small crater into the rocky carapace!
"Raaaaaagh~!"
"Holy shit! Hahaha~!"
Asmodeus looked at the gun in surprise, then quickly jumped a dozen meters in the air and avoided another dangerous tail sweep! He aimed at that massive target and started firing somewhat wildly, mostly relying on the Force, rather than his own nonexistent marksmanship. After all, he was afraid to test out the blasters too much, because he didn't know whether they had 'bullets' or some other ammo limitations.
"Ow! Fuck!"
"Raaagh~!"
He shouted at the same time that the beast roared. For him, it was just a minor scald from the blaster overheating, but for the Krayt Dragon, the poor bastard's head was covered in gigantic pockmarks by now! It even lost a few teeth and chunks of that massive tongue!
As he was falling, Asmodeus couldn't help wondering: "Is it just me, or are blasters actually really overpowered?"
