[Nomo and Kujira] Rise of the Monstrous Sumos (Part 3, The Big Finale!) -------- [Halloween Night, during Triss's big special halloween sumo event] Nomo and Kujira sit next to each other on the stands, watching the current matchup. They hadn't spoken to each other too much during the whole event, perhaps to conceal their big plans to take each other down in the big main event. Once the match ends and the winner gets a big bag of candy, Triss gets into the ring. "Alright everyone! We've got *one* more match lined up for you all, and it's gonna be a big one! These two are gonna be playing for THIS trophy!" She motions to something on a table behind her. It's a large trophy with a band around it that has Triss's belly pattern on it. Looks fancy! Nomo slightly glances over at Kujira. "I'm getting that trophy by the way~" Kujira smugly gazes back, "Oh yeah? We'll see about that~" "And now, allow me to introduce our first competitor!" Triss announces as Nomo walks into the ring. "She's soft, she's purple, and she knows how to pack a punch! NOMO!" Nomo relishes in the cheering of the crowd, which was almost second nature to her. Outside the ring, Nallory sits there and gives a big thumbs up. Seems she has faith in her preformance! "And her opponent..." Triss glances over at Kujira, who's also stomping into the ring. "The empress of sumo herself, one of the heaviest hitters in the league... KUJIRA!" The cheering is of similar volume. Also outside the ring, Kiki cheers along with the others. "YEAAAA! GO KUJIRA!!!" she yells. The two massive sumos stance up, looking into each others eyes with an extra boost of confidence. Triss gets between them. "Alright, this is going to be best of 10! Startiiiiiing... NOW!" She quickly hops out of the way, anticipating an immediate clashing... However, she's interested to see Nomo and Kujira both produce a bottle of what looks like soda... Nomo and Kuji both immediately down the soda potions, and strangely quicker than the first time they begin to transform into their monstrous forms... Nomo bulks out, grows horns, and turns a lovely shade of purple. Kujira blimps to whale size, flexing her fins and baring her sharp teeth. Nomo has the first word, "You're going DOWN you big blue whale!!!" She then lunges at Kuji and... **CLAAAAASH!** The ground shakes a bit when the two collide, pushing on each other. Triss looks up in seeming awe. "Woah... I didn't even know they could do that!" Kujira pushes back, spinning around and slapping Nomo aside with her tail. Nomo only slides back, with balance as strong as a mountain. She stomps the ground and goes in for a slap of her own, her hand colliding with Kujira's upper body. *WHAP! WHAP! WHAP!* Though her fat ripples and wobbles, scales shining in the moonlight, it doesn't phase her a single bit. The two keep clashing and clashing, Triss having now gone to stand with Nallory and Kiki. Eventually, during a clash attempt, Kujira ducks out of the way of a charging Nomo, causing her to hit the ground belly first. **THOOOOOM!** "One point to Kujira!" Triss calls. Nomo soon gets up and... runs over to Nallory? "HEY! Nal!" Her voice booms, amplified by her size, "Got another bottle?" Nallory seems stunned, "But Nomo... it's unknown what would happen if you drank another... What if something-" Kujira, noticing what Nomo is about to do, also rushes over. "Kiki! Juice me up!" Kiki is a little hesitant, similar to Nallory, but reaches for a bottle in her pocket. Nal notices almost immediately, and sighs. "Well... if something bad happens, just ask like... Billow to fix you up." The two small ladies hand another bottle to these monstrous combatants, which they immediately down. And just as quickly as they had paused, they go right back to brawling. Nomo begins to change again first, her body beginning to grow again. Her horns get a bit longer, and her tusks become more pronounced. Kujira also begins to grow, looking a bit more wild and dangerous the larger she gets. The two push and grow, until they've pushed themselves out of the ring and onto the beach. Triss and the two companions rush over to keep track of the match, as the two growing ladies clash right into the ocean, being able to stand with bodies still above the waves. "Well well well!" Kujira mocks, "My home turf!~" "AS IF!" Nomo yells back, "What's an ocean to a mountain?~" As the two continue to clash and slap at each other, consistently thwarting each others attempt to score a point, something strange begins to happen. When Kujira moves about, it almost feels like waves are swirling around her, not being pushed away from her. Meanwhile Nomo's spiral belly pattern wobbles, almost seeming a little hypnotic... Nallory leans over to Triss, "How uh... long do you think they'll be at this?" Triss is snacking on popcorn, pulled from seemingly nowhere. "They can go however long they want! This is great entertainment after all~" --- [30 Minutes Later] The match continues to stalemate, as the huge yokai sumos continue to clash and bash, without knocking each other over. Nallory's nearly falling asleep, while Kiki cheers on Kuji even from so far away. Triss, finding an opprotunity to make this even better, calls out to them. "HEY! YOU TWO!" Nomo and Kuji look at Triss mid-clash, and almost in sync say "WHAT?!" "I was thinking..." Triss holds up... two other potion bottles? Nal and Kiki are immediately surprised as Triss gloats, "How about one more for each of you!" Nallory objects, "Triss!!! Two was pushing it but THREE?" Kiki also pipes up, "Yea! We don't know what'll happen if they have too much!" Triss shrugs, "Look, it's *my* birthday, and I trust these two won't idk explode or something." she winds her arms back, "NOW GO LONG!" With some of her sufferfish strength kicking in, she flings the two bottles towards Nomo and Kujira, who each grab one. They look at each others forms for a second, wondering if the others are right. Nomo gently twists the cap, "Kujira? Whatever happens, trust we'll have the best exhibition monster match ever?" Kujira, who doesn't normally agree with Nomo on things, nods. "Yea, this is really fun so far. I feel so powerful... and I just want more~" Nomo smugly smiles back, before chugging her potion. Kujira chugs hers also. Unlike the last two, their further transformation begins immediately, and they grow even more than before... Nomo's belly nearly overwhelms her balance, while Kujira's stance is nearly thrown off by the sudden surges of growth. Though within them... comes a new feeling~ Once the two are done growing, reaching about 35ft each, Kujira puts her hands down at her sides. The waters bubble, before she swipes at the air, causing a huge wave to crash against Nomo! "Pleh! Oh so we have full on powers now?~" Nomo observes, wondering what she could try. With some quick thinking, she drums her belly... **PONG! PONG! PONG!** The sound is almost soothing in a way, making Kujira's stance falter a little. "Sweeeeeeet, hypnotic belly drum! That'll be useful when-" her observation is cut short by another wave to the face. Kujira laughs, sounding a bit more villainous than normal. "GRAHAHAHA! You think a smooth beat is going to stop ME?" She bends down, swirling the waves around her. "You're DEAD WRONG!" she rushes at Nomo, this time with waves surrounding her. **SPLAAAASH!** Though it's a little slippery to get a good hold, Nomo pushes back. The actual collision with her body felt like nothing she had felt before, like she really *was* a mountain. She smirks, and starts to raise her leg... before- **THOOOOOOOOOOOM!** Everyone still on the beach is launched a foot in the air, and the ground shakes like never before. The shockwave creates her own waves, splashing Kuji back a bit. Triss looks on in amazement... after hitting the ground of course. "My gosh,,, they've really become full on kaijus..." It's almost enough to make her cry tears of joy. It's perhaps the best thing to happen on her birthday ever! --- [A whiiiiile later...] In all that time, the score is now only 4-3. Nomo and Kujira have shown no signs of changing back, even as the sun begins to rise. While the two kaiju combatants have been going at it all night, the three on the beach eventually passed out. Nomo notices this first, "Kuji- wait." she even throws in a few slaps of her belly to calm her. Kuji stops swirling the waves and looks to the others, "Dawww... how cute!" The two stand around for a minute... before huffing and puffing like crazy. "Hooh... that was the longest match I've ever had in my life!" Nomo pants. Kujira similarly seems tired, "Gosh, I didn't know being a whale would be so... exhausting." Realizing this brawl has gone on long enough (and has maybe caused a bit of property damage) the two do something they don't normally do... they shake hands. "Let's just call it here, ok?" Nomo suggests. Kujira nods in silent agreement. And almost as quickly as these forms had been bestowed upon them, they begin to shrink down back to normal. Though unlike the first times they had done it, they feel more... controlled in a way, almost as if these inner beasts were now a part of them. Once back to normal, the two walk onto the beach, looking at the three sleeping. Kujira speaks quietly, "Do you think we could just hang out on the beach for a bit? While we wait for them to wake up." Nomo sits down on the sand, patting a spot next to her for Kujira to sit, "Definitely! Now come on!" The two rivals sit side by side, feeling fufilled even if their match was a tie. As they watch the sun rise, that monstrous part of them feels like it's going dormant. Perhaps though, they could find these powerful parts of them again~ For now, while it's cool to be a 35ft tall Oni or monster Whale, it doesn't compare to the joys of being one of the best sumos in the world... Kuji: "So this isn't going on the win/loss ratio right?" Nomo: "Ooooh I swear I'll pull that oni form back out just to tip my scales over yours!" Kuji: "Auhuhu, even back in Heluian form you've still got that fire within you. I couldn't ask for a better rival." Nomo: "Awww Kujiiiii that's really sweet!" Kuji: "Hey! Wasn't meant to be sweet!" Nomo: "Tooooooo late!" [The End...] --- WOW that was a lot! My first time doing a multi-part story and I feel like I did pretty well! BIG shout outs to @Onnazumo for helping come up with the idea of Nomo and Kujira having huge yokai forms! It wasn't explored in this story, but I feel like under specific circumstances the two are able to harness these forms again since they ingested so much of the potion. It's like a good side effect! Perhaps someday I'll write more with Nomoni and Kaiju Kujira... for now though HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!! (And also happy birthday to Triss yea her bday is canonically Oct 31st lol)
