4 Friends, 1 Extreme Behemoth. (Part 2)

Caden grabbed his Wyvern Ignition build & headed down to greet his friends in the third area. Behemoth was in the Volcanic Zone.

Upon arriving, he saw Behemoth perform a Geyser Punch on Thomas but he I-Framed dodged it perfectly. Caitlyn was performing Aerial Attacks on it's tail & finally managed to sever it. "YES! This just got so much easier!" She said with excitement. That excitement soon faded however when Behemoth pinned her to the ground, grabbing her in it's fist, slammed her repeatedly & threw her against a wall. She then gained the Behemoth's Enmity when she shouldn't have. "HAAAAALP!" She yelled. Acting quickly, JD threw a Flash Pod & canceled the Enmity to which he then proceeded to heal her Bleed Blight & use a Mega Potion.

The Quartet continued to do their best in damaging the Behemoth. Attacks were dodged, TCSes & SAEDs were landed, songs were played & items were used all while the timer kept ticking. They were on pace to pass the check.

And pass it they did. After a few minutes, the Behemoth made haste towards the final area; The Hottest & Most Dangerous Room in the Elder's Recess without casting Ecliptic Meteor. Thomas assessed the situation. "Whew. Alright. You guys remember what to do for this phase, right?" Caden & JD confirmed. "Yyyyyep!" "Already restocking."

Caitlyn & Thomas went back to camp as well. Phase 4 was gonna be ruthless. They wanted to eat another meal & also restock as well. Caden switched back to his Gunlance Tank set.

The group headed down into the lava pit. On the way, Thomas explained "Enmity is more crucial than ever in this phase. We cannot have it constantly casting Charybdis in an area with lava geysers. As for JD, I don't recommend engaging with Behemoth at all in this phase. We need you to have full focus on Healing & Buffing us so just stay far away from Behemoth." JD Was eager to agree. "You don't need to tell me twice." Thomas continued. "Caitlyn... Whatever you do... Do NOT try to mount Behemoth in this phase. It'll only summon one Comet per each of the three Ecliptic Meteors that it casts in this phase. If we exceed two Ecliptic Meteor thresholds then we'll be forced to jump one of them which I'm doubtful that you know the timing. Just stick to ground combos."

Everyone understood the plan. They arrived in the final area & Behemoth immediately started casting Charybdis without hesitation. Thomas lead it off to side because he anticipated the spell. Behemoth charged shoulder first across the zone & bulldozed everyone over. One of those people was JD who couldn't immediately heal everybody. Unfortunately, Behemoth instantly followed up with a paw slam & shoulder check. Caden was able to block it but JD was sent back to camp on a cart. "F***!!!!" He cursed at the screen. Their Support was absent for the time being. Meanwhile, Caden was luckily able to gain the Behemoth's Enmity. "Okay. I'll hold him right here. Beat it's stupid face in or something!" Thomas unloaded another SAED & said "Just one problem. If he summons a Comet on you, we won't be able to hide behind it because you're at an edge." Caden sheathed his Gunlance. "Shoot..." He said bluntly as he started running towards the middle of the zone. Just in time to because Behemoth summoned a Comet right on top of him just then. He avoided placing it directly in the middle but wasn't foolish enough to place it to far off to the side either. Thomas unloaded one more SAED causing Behemoth to flinch. He then said "I think it's gonna happen right now." Caden replied with "Wait... Where's JD?"

JD Was halfway through the tunnel & his heart sank when he read the ominous text on the right side of the screen. *The Behemoth is casting Ecliptic Meteor*

"NO! I REFUSE TO CART TWICE TO THIS S****!" He said angrily as he quickly ran back to the previous zone. JD Saw the bright red flash & quaking impact emanate from the pit. The other three were protected by the Comet. Behemoth instantly followed up with a Geyser Punch as JD re-entered the zone to re-apply the Attack & Defense buffs as well as spam Mega Potions.

Thomas & Caitlyn let loose on it's soft arms. Caitlyn Paralyzed Behemoth once again. "I'm gonna really try to get another KO." Thomas said as he discharged as many Phials into Behemoth's head as he could. As soon as the Paralysis subsided, the KO took effect & the four of them showed Behemoth no mercy. "Beat his arms. Beat his f***ing arms in! Put a hole in his arms, Gog Damnit!" Behemoth got up & summoned a Comet on Caitlyn. She was already in a good spot so she didn't need to move much.

Behemoth started casting the 2nd Ecliptic Meteor. The Comet was right next to it so the team was already in position. "I'm shaking so much now." Caitlyn said looking noticeably stressed. Thomas reassured her that everything was gonna be okay. "We're almost there. Just one more."

After the explosion went off, Behemoth followed up with a paw slam which caught Thomas completely off guard & one shotted him. "OH MY GOD!!! STOP!" He yelled at the screen frustrated with such a surprising cart as everyone else dispersed. Only one faint remained. It was gonna be close.

Caden regained the Enmity for the last time. Until Thomas got back, Caitlyn was the only one doing significant damage. "Focus, Guys. We can't afford to to lose this now. We've come this far." JD said. Thomas re-entered the zone & went crazy with his Temporal & Rocksteady Mantles. He unloaded SAED after SAED with no letup. "Die! JUST DIE!! COME OOOOON!" He yelled furiously.

Behemoth summoned the final Comet on JD. Unfortunately, he was too close to the center & thus accidentally placed it in a bad spot. And then... Disaster struck. Behemoth comboed spins into punches into slams all in one spot shattering the final Comet.

In a panic, Thomas said "Alright! It's come down this. Just Farcaster out. I'll finish the last of his health & jump. I can time it. It's not worth everyone attempting this jump by themselves." They all agreed that this was the best course of action & let Thomas do the rest.

One more SAED later & it was time. Thomas & Behemoth were alone. There were no Comets. The Behemoth stood up to begin the cast. They both silently stared at each other in this final moment. Thomas's thumb was ready. All he needed to do was press the button at just the right time.

A second after Behemoth casted the Ecliptic Meteor, he went for it. Thomas rocketed towards the sky. The blast wave blew across the zone.

Everyone was silent.

...

He did it.

Thomas careened back down to the ground & crashed onto it's head putting the final nail in the coffin as the Behemoth dropped dead.

*Final Fantasy Fanfare Plays*

Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief. It was over. The struggle, the time investment, the blood, the sweat & the tears finally paid off. They were victorious.

The others came back down to carve as they conversed with each other. Caden said "So... Can we agree to never do this quest again?" JD, Caitlyn & Thomas all responded "Yep." "Totally agree." "Yeah. We're definitely good. And now we all celebrate with Layered Drachen Armor!"

*Duty Complete*
