Nirvei sat on the edge of a cliff, staring up at Earth's dismal red sky with a bitter look on her face. It had been nearly a month since she had arrived on this hell hole of a planet, and she wasn't happy at all. This place was nothing like Karas. The people here were rude, barbaric, and had even attacked her on a few occasions. "Some welcoming committee," she mumbled to herself while kicking her legs back and forth. It was a shame that her pod had been damaged when it landed, or she would have been long gone by now.
Her stomach decided to jar her from her thoughts with a low growl. 'Eh, maybe some lunch will take my mind off of the situation,' she thought with a sigh. The Keretian girl jumped to her feet and leisurely stretched her arms over her head. Her hand darted into her pocket and pulled out a pouch with some dried fish. It may not have been much, but pickings were pretty slim. 'I haven't had any contact from my uncle, or any of the others that escaped either. I've got to find some way off this planet,' she thought while walking away from the edge of the cliff and munching on the fish.

Atop the virtually unknown Lookout of Earth sat the Lord Deragth on his throne, a pathetic looking messenger entering the dark room.
M-My Lord! A-A S-Spaceship has e-entered the atmosphere w-w-w-without...
The sound of the messenger's words were instantly replaced by the sharp tone of a charging Ki Blast. In a flash, the messenger lay on the ground, lying in a heap with purple blood pouring out of where his heart once was.
A finger raised, Deragth merely nodded in understanding. Raising the entire arm that held the finger, a flash of light appeared before a demonic creature materialized, saliva leaking from its' mouth.
Immediately, and without hesitation, the creature leaped off the Lookout, its' purple wings flapping before carrying its' bearer high into the air.
It wouldn't be long before the Hellspawn scout found its' target...

Nirvei finished off the last of the fish and stuffed the pouch back into the pocket of her white tunic. She wasn't hungry anymore, but that had been the last of her food. It looked like it was time to forage for more. At least it was something to keep her busy, and she would be much happier finding her own food than going anywhere near civilization.
The girl scanned the area for a good place to start looking. The wasteland that she found herself in didn't have any source of water that was near by, so fishing was out of the question. There wasn't any vegetation in sight either. Just a barren land with scattered ravines, high cliffs, and a dry canyon running through the middle. "I guess it's time to relocate again," she mumbled.
As Nirvei was about to break out into a run, something up in the air caught her attention. A silhouette of some kind of monster was soaring high above her against the red sky. 'What's that up there?' she wondered while squinting her gray eyes to try and get a better look. It almost looked like it was coming her way. Something in the back of her mind was telling her to run as fast as she could, but Nirvei made no attempt to do so. She would soon learn that this was not the best time to let her curiosity get the better of her.

Upon approaching the natural wonder known as "Skull Valley," the monstrous being began to search more intently, using its' uncanny ability to zoom in with its' eyes. Letting out a high pitched cry, the creature made it known that it had found its' target. Lowering his altitude by flapping his wings in a less rapid manner, the creature begun its' descent. Perhaps fifty meters in the air, the creature halted all wing movement, as it fell rapidly. Impacting with the ground, a dent was created, along with a satisfying sound. Walking on two legs like a human would, the demon caught sight of a feminine humanoid being just a few meters from the spaceship. In an animal-like manner, the creature leapt at the girl, fangs revealed, saliva dropping out of his mouth with every motion. "RAAA!"Strength: 240 Ki Outlet: 010 Endurance: 110 Speed: 185

Nirvei's eyes widened as the demonic being finally landed. She glanced between it and her broken pod that was embedded in the ground from landing. "Listen pal, you can have that thing if you really want it so badly. It's busted anyway..." she tried to explain, hoping that it was after the hunk of scrap metal instead of her. Unfortunately, this wasn't the case. This thing wasn't going to leave her alone without a fight. "Just great. Something else that wants to kill me, that's exactly what I needed," she groaned.
Her hands clenched into fists as Nirvei took a defensive stance. She eyed the creature as it lunged for her and waited for just the right moment. As he rapidly closed in on her, the girl sidestepped the attack and aimed a punch at his face.

The demon groaned as it caught the thrown punch full force in the jaw, its' perfect vision becoming slightly blurry. Purple swelling started to appear where the blow had hit, as the demon growled in anger, its' rage carrying it to its' Full Power.
Leaping at the girl again in the same manner as he had done before, teeth first... The creature obviously hadn't learned his lesson, or had he? A glowing light could be seen forming inside the monster's mouth.

'What's this thing's problem anyway!? Why is it trying to tear me apart? Did it just decide to go hunting in a place that has no water or vegetation? It doesn't make any sense,' Nirvei thought. Sure, she may have been here but that was besides the point. There wasn't any use thinking about it now though.
It dove for Nirvei once more. This time she tried to duck underneath the attack and attempted to land a high kick on the creature's jaw. Maybe then it would stop trying to bit her.

"RAAAH!
The monster growled as the glowing light coming from its' mouth turned into an energy ball, which he released at the ducking girl. It would very obviously hit the spaceship behind if she did not take the blow.
Though he was able to let off the attack in time, the monster was caught by yet another strike to the jaw, a slight crack could be heard as it broke the jaw. The swelling opened up and converted to a cut, which leaked a large amount of purple blood.
The demon groaned in a deafening volume as its' vision started to blacken. Another time the monster lunged forward, again charging with its' teeth, aimed at the now downed girl, how would she get out of this situation?

Nirvei managed to go down quick enough to avoid most of the blast. It was able to catch her left hand though. She drew the injured wrist close the her chest and winced in pain. It didn't look too bad. The skin had burns on it, but nothing that wouldn't heal up if given a bit of time. She wouldn't be using it in this battle anymore.
As Nirvei looked over her hand, she heard an explosion coming from behind her. She tossed a quick glance over her shoulder to see the smoldering pieces of her pod littering the ground. 'Well, it's not like I could use that thing anyway...' she thought with a sigh.
Her mind was pulled back to the fight as the creature once again tried to bite her. The Keretian extended her right arm toward the beast, her palm exposed to him. A small ball of energy appeared in front of her hand. "Heliotrope Shield!" As soon as the words left her lips, the ball flattened and expanded into a circular shield. It would only hold up for a single attack, but hopefully that would buy her enough time for her to gather her ki. Maybe this thing would leave her alone after experiencing a Violet Circle to the face.
