Soul Fusion Online

"Are we all here?" Ryu asked as he stood up on top of a large rock overlooking his guildmates.

"Every last one logged in on time, Darling~! It seems the news of us becoming the number one guild really got everyone riled up." Margie answered as he handed over a list to Ryu. 

"Good, have them get into formation. Chi will take the rear in case anyone tries to ambush us to make a name for themselves. Greenhat, WhiteLotus, Fingersandwhich, Rose, Violet, the numbers, and yourself will take up the sides. I will take the lead. The rest will protect the weaker members. Let\'s move out." Ryu had been waiting for this day. The first full guild raid on a world boss! 

After everyone was in formation, Ryu charged forward. Unlike before, the forest was now filled with monsters. They had to fight many battles along the way. Everyone was working hard as they continued to push forward towards the Sky King\'s lair. What should have only been a day\'s worth of ingame time travel turned into two and a half days due to all the monsters. But they had finally arrived outside their lair.

"Ryu, do we need to pull it?" Chi asked.

"No, our assassins tell us that the oversized chicken usually makes its rounds to find food around this time. All we need to do is wait. Get everyone into formation. Ranged should be in the back. Have some of the lower level DPS stay by the range to add support in case any monsters come out of the forest to attack. We do not want adds attacking us while we are fighting the chicken. Get all main tanks to the front. Even the low level ones can serve as off tanks. Have the healers protected by those who have reached the soul sensing realm. If our healers go down, we can forget about killing this boss. Everyone else is to be ready to fight." Ryu gave out a string of orders while Chi and the rest went into action, getting everyone organized. 

Ryu had no idea what the oversized chicken\'s true strength was. He only saw a few different attacks. But he knew it was smart. Smart enough to understand him when he was trying to get it mad at KillerT. 

After ten minutes, everyone was in position, and it was now time to wait. They had formed a semi circle around the entrance of the lair, which was a large cave at the end of the valley at the bottom of the mountain. 

"Caw!" A loud cry came from inside the entrance of the lair. Ryu did not call out, instead, he waved his hand to let others know to be ready.  The ground shook as the steps of the Sky King could be heard coming closer with each stride. 

As soon as its big chicken head exited the lair, it raised it up, looking proud as it stuck its beak high into the sky. Ryu motioned with his hand to say, wait a little longer to let it walk out more before attacking. He watched as the sky king took three steps forward and paused. It seemed to have sensed something wrong. Ryu frowned as he gave the signal to attack. "Tanks encircle it!"

"Caw!" The Sky king was angered by the fact that a bunch of little humans dared to enter its territory. But when it took a closer look at the one giving orders and smelt the familiar scent of that young man who escaped from it before. Its anger rose even higher and charged straight at Ryu!  "Caaaaawww!!!"

"Why the hell is it targeting me!?" Ryu yelled out as he realized he was the main target for the oversized chicken. 

"Ryu, I think it remembers you!" Chi yelled out. If the sky king was indeed intelligent, it wouldn\'t be strange for it to remember Ryu and what Ryu did.

"What the hell!? Didn\'t birds have such small brains they would forget everything after taking three steps!?" Ryu yelled out as he was about to take off running before turning around and saying: "Fuck it! I will just be the main tank!" 

Ryu drew his sword and cast Iron body on himself, boosting his defense by another 100 points. He knew he probably did not need it, but he figured it was best to be safe than sorry. Seeing Ryu turn to fight it, the sky king flapped its wings in anger, sending wind blades in all directions. "Quickly get down! It\'s an AOE attack!" The wind blades were easily dodged if you dropped down since they were only thin blades of wind. While his guild members came out unscathed in this first attack, the surrounding trees were not so lucky as a large area was instantly cut down. 

"Everyone attack! Melee DPS watch its feet! Don\'t get stepped on. I am sure it is not a good way to die." Ryu still gave out orders as the Sky king stabbed down at him with its beak. Ryu parried it and slashed out in a counter attack at its eye, causing a deep cut to form from the top of its eye to the bottom. 

"Caaww!!" The sky king let out a pained cry as it furiously flapped its wings and rose into the air. Ryu felt something bad was about to come, so he quickly yelled out: "Everyone get your defenses up! Be ready!"

Ryu was right to worry, the Sky King hovered in the air and opened its mouth. A bright reddish glow came from within and to everyone\'s surprise the oversized chicken shot out a stream of flame at everyone on the ground. Causing a wave of flames to spread out in all directions. 

"This damn chicken thinks it\'s a dragon!" Ryu yelled out as he turned tail to run. He did not want to get caught up in that flame! He never expected the world boss in a lower level area to have a raid wipe skill!
