Supernova's Training Grounds

After scaling the mountain, Supernova believed she was the best around. She beat the imaginary blob she made up in the race after all, why shouldn't she boast?



A wicked grin spread upon her heart monitor-like face as she thought of the perfect victim. She remembered the smuck that she messed with and teased several times before. She just knew that it would be 'happy' to forcibly participate in a race. So that's what her main plan was. Hopefully on the way to the Tar Pits, she would meet more of these racers to run against.

Luckily for Supernova, and unfortunately for this random Axolabeb that she started charging, it was dragged into a 'race'. The Axolabeb spotted her from afar as she was brightly colored, and her vertical rainbow spotlight eyes were starring daggers and sending bad vibes. Obviously enough, the Axolabeb was scared out of its mind and began to scramble around to the closest water pit which was in front of it. There was a good portion of land to cross before safety, and the large predator known as Supernova was quickly approaching. In the distance, fast footsteps and gradually increasing static could be heard. Boom. Boom. Boom. The sound was getting closer and closer. The poor Axolabeb was sweating bullets and became faster, scampering as hard as it could to not be eaten in its own perspective. It didn't even want to turn around and look, as it would lose speed doing so.


On the other hand, Supernova took it as a challenge as soon as the Axolabeb started running from her. The excitement brought up her habit of producing radio static as she quickly gained upon her adversary. While Supernova never swam before, she was she she could do it way better than the small animal currently losing to her in land speed. The two of them were very close to the water when suddenly, Supernova blasted past and attempted to run on water.

This failed immensely and a loud 'fwoosh' came up as the the water was displaced everywhere. The terrified Axolabeb thought Supernova missed a killing blow, and unperturbed, dove into the water to swim away from the imposing beast. Aftwer a facefull of swamp water, Supernova sat up and listed her head and tails high in victory.


With the Axolabeb gone, Supernova immediately got bored and went on her way to the Tar Pits. It was a good thing it was close by. Once entered, she began to look around for the smuck, she once teased. It was hard though, as they all looked the same to her. So she decided to taunt them with words to hopefully lure them out.



In the corner of her eye, she saw a smuck slowly coming toward her, sneaking upon the ground, probably hoping their black tar-y body would hide them well enough. Supernova sharply turned her head, stared deeply at the smuck as if telling them she spotted it, and began her rant.



She stopped for a moment trying to think of a benefit for the smuck. She never expected them to win, so she never thought about it, but she had to persuade them somehow.



Supernova was feeling very cocky and was hot shit after the consecutive 'race' wins. She needed another good win under her belt to really boast to others. As the smuck nodded, Supernova pranced over and lined up near them. The smuck gurgled and pointed at a distant bleeding heart tree, trying to say they wanted that to be the finish line. Supernova accepted and got into a ready position.



After a nice and fair start, Supernova could fully concentrate on putting her full effort into running full speed. She thought it was stupid of the smuck to have a straight line race. The tree was getting nearer and nearer, and Supernova managed to take a moment to glance behind her. She laughed aloud as she saw how far ahead she was. As she was leaving the smuck in the dust, suddenly, the ground beneath her disappeared and she dropped into a tar pit.

It was a great shock and it gave the smuck time to catch up. For a moment, Supernova freaked out as she thought she might actually lose. It was planned all along on the smuck's part, as it overtook Supernova and mocked her in mimiking her own laugh. It entered the tar and swam in it quite well. Supernova on the other hand had to scramble out and go around as she realized she wasn't the best swimmer. It was good Supernova was chaos oreintated, as she could swim out relatively easily. She began bolting off once more towards the finish, dangerously close to losing.

Supernova put on a burst of speed as she was getting desperate. Once the tree came into view, she crossed the roots and tripped over it, tumbling head over tail. She saw the smuck pass just a little after her, just a smidge even. This gave Supernova great pride, and she probably won't ever shut up about being the fastest until she loses.

Unluckily though, the smuck took the opportunity while Supernova was down to surprise hug her. Even though both her and the smuck knew who won, the smuck couldn't help itself as it has been deprived of attention for a small number. It would be a while until the smuck lets her go again, but at least Supernova can struggle and boast the smucks' ears off in the meantime.

With a plan in mind, Supernova, once again, went back to the Smiley Sands. At least the Tar Pits was sort of close by. Even better, once she was out of the tar pits and on the border between the swamps and sands, Supernova spotted a terreden.

The terreden was minding its own business, just wandering the border, when Supernova took a long running start and headbutted its tail. With the tail swishing back and forth along the ground, it was an easy target. The sensitive tail was slammed, and the terreden flinched in shock and pain. This immediately enraged the terreden and it began to swing its paws in a large arc to smack whatever harmed it.

Instead of easily dodging the slow moving claw, Supernova assumed the crouching position she practiced. Once the claw was almost upon her, she was sort of having second thoughts. Those razor sharp claws sort of looked dangerous from up close. She was afraid to admit that this wasn't the best idea.

The claw came crashing down upon her and flattened her like a pancake. With the terreden knowing where the assailant was, it decided to strike again while it had the opportunity and swiped its claw. Its claw took a large chunk of both sandy mud and Supernova. The large size even one nail of the claw hit the middle of her torso and flung her deeper into the swamps. She was to shocked to remember to roll as she came tumbling across the ground and tangled in some glow grapes.

A large cut across her lower half bled bright rainbow. She thrashed her tails in pain and anger as she regretted her choice. She got up and angerly stomped to a water pool to wash off. With every step, she winced and used her paws to clean herself once the water was under her. A low crackling could be heard all the while.
