Re: LadyElvenarcher and Shade vs. Puck the Trickster and Duke of Clubs (Plains)
OoC: Well put DOC. Anyways here is my post it is nothing compared to the greatness of Shade, and LEA but it will have to do.
BiC:
Somewhere in the midst of the battle, a small almost silent sound buzzed through the misty air. Cutting through the heavy atmosphere the arrow soared at its unsuspecting target. Tsuukai sensed something was about to happen what he didn’t know. Seconds grew into hours as the arrow slowly and decisively picked it’s spot. A glimpse caught his, something shining in the mist. Before he knew what it was he was on the ground in pain, an arrow sticking out of his arm. His body went to the ground for only a split second. As a true warrior would he quickly returned to his feet ready for whatever hell was next.
Placing his hand around the enchanted arrow, he pulled it from his flesh causing a waterfall of blood to emerge from his wound. Fight threw the pain, teach them the meaning of war, a voice spoke to the master of shadows. Not another word, this is my fight not yours I will win it as I please. The voice took warning, and did not speak again.
In the mist a pair of small footsteps trotted along an unbeaten path. Stalking the black rider, aiming for death. Closing his eyes’ the purpled haired warrior was no longer deceived by the world. He could see anything with power. He focused on the beast. His mind hovered threw the even more blurry world, looking, searching. Finally his mind focused on the source of the power, the wolf only a few feet behind him, ready to strike. Tsuukai dropped to one knee not from the every rising pain in his arm.
Apollo was almost upon him. His heightened vision could see the shadow kneeling, a perfect time to attack. Using his full force he leapt from the ground. The blue mist swirling around him as he dove, but before his teeth, and claws could reach their target he was stopped short by a wall. It seemed it had decided to come in the most unlikely of time, certainly not by mere chance.
Apollo took no time to lay on the ground he bonded to his feet, teeth glaring in anger. The wolf sped around the newly created obstacle, but as he did a shadow laid in wait. As his body bound around the unlikely barrier a blast of black energy shot him off his feet, sending him into the seemingly endless mist, fading from sight. A sadistic smile of victory crawled over Ita’s face as he stood still in the dense fog. Waiting for something, what he did not know, a scream in the dark, a face wrenched in pain, the flap of wings, the end of lost sight. Around him the purple mist lightened, not away completely, but enough to see clearly. What he saw was not the best of things; the demon had a pair of metal spiked gloves, and was charging at his only ally. While his favor did not rest on his partner, he could not let himself be double-teamed.
The hand of Tsuukai went into his cloak for a split second returning only moments later with a small dagger. Not big enough to fight hand to hand, but enough to cause pain in which ever it chose. The blade was tossed over the shadow covered ground threw thick grass, and into the leg of a demon. It seemed Konjiro had yet to readjust his eyes to look at both opponents. This allowed Tsuukai to attack from behind, while the monkey was distracted. The cute face of Konjiro tightened and wretched as the blade dug into his hairy leg.
“I owe you one,” Kellson bellowed over the blood stained plains, as he prepared to face a slightly weakened opponent.
“No, this makes two,” The shadow stated matter of factly, as he drew his saber. He stared at it; he noticed it was still surprisingly shiny besides being used for many years of battle. He could see himself almost perfectly in its reflection of the world. Not only that he could see behind him as well. What he saw was another arrow just like the one before about to be set loose. Not taking a moment to think he noticed the entire land was covered in shadow by the storm brewing above.” Covered in shadow,” he whispered to himself, slowly sinking into the shadows below him.
