"Even stronger?" Krush slightly mocked, "You're full of surprises."

Tuariv smirked and spit a small amount of blood that was in his mouth onto the ground, "Obviously I'm not the only one, maybe Kenjin was right to have me test you."

The lizard flexed his muscles, "I have alot more to see tested on you, can you stand the heat?"

"Sure." Krush smiled.

"Well just hope you don't get burned." Tuariv snorted a bit of smoke from his nostrils.

Slowly Tuariv back himself against the wall, and to Krushes shock, disappeared into thin air. The room was dimly lit so that proved very disadvantagous, especially now with another of Tuarivs moves shown.

There was no sound, besides the small rocks that still slipped into the cave where the two fighters were. A droplet of sweat fell down Krushes face, "Getting to be to much?" Tuarivs voice echoed.

"You wish. I'm just getting started."

"Not by what I see, I think you're getting tired."

"Think again!" Krush yelled back.

Suddenly Krush couldn't move, an invisible force was holding him in a full nelson. And Tuarivs voice whispered in his ear, "Hope you can stand the heat," Krushes eyes widened, "You're about to get burned."

Tuariv appeared immediatly, mouth open and a burst of fire raging out right onto Krushes head. This went on for a few seconds, and then Tuariv let go, walking a few feet away.

Krushes head let off smoke, which billowed into the tower lobby above. The young man sweat quite a bit now, but could he go on more?
