As me and Tara were searching for some giant turtles to hunt to get some hide, we discovered a giant turtle's nest near Felicia. Me and Tara approached the nest and saw several young turtles and two adults.
"The two adult turtles are far apart," I said to Tara. "Let's take this one out fast before the other one notices."
"Sounds good," Tara replied. "I have my bow ready, and I'll keep my distance."
I lured the giant turtle into battle. As I was slashing it with my sword and blocking its attacks with my shield, Tara was shooting it with arrows in the distance.
"Nice work, Tara." I yelled. "Keep shooting it with the arrows."
Tara raised her bow and shot another arrow, "It's dying, Ricky. Finish it off."
I took my sword and swung it at the giant turtle slicing its neck open. The beast fell to the ground dead.
"One down, and one more to go!" I said to Tara.
"The other one is climbing up the rocks," Tara replied. "I'll make a surprise attack and shoot it with an arrow from behind."
Tara shot an arrow at the second giant turtle hitting it in the back of its thigh. The beast then came charging at her.
"Watch out, Tara. It's coming right for you," I yelled.
Tara aimed her bow at the giant turtle and shot another arrow hitting it right in the back of its throat. She then switched to her sword as the beast approached her. She slashed the beast across its neck and evaded its attack.
"Too slow!" Tara yelled to the beast.
I joined Tara in the melee attack, and together we sliced the creature down putting an end to its life.
"Not bad, Tara," I said. "Not only are you good with a sword, but you're pretty damn good with a bow too."
Tara winked at me, "Thanks, Ricky."
"Alright, let's process these giant turtles and then head back to Felicia," I said.
Well, me and Tara just finished processing the beasts for hide. We're now just gonna head back to Felicia and figure out the next steps that we need to take in order to craft some decent armor.
