A Fight for the Ages(PvP)

Ni-Ju stood on a deserted beach near Hargeon Town awaiting the arrival of his opponent. This would be his first real fight against someone from the same guild as he, causing more then a bit of nervousness to creep through his stomach. Banishing his doubts through the simple expediant of keeping himself busy, Ni-Ju began checking his clothing and weapon just to be sure that he didn't end up making a beginner's mistake such as leaving a shoe lace untied to trip him at the most inoppertune time. Several minutes of this went by before he realized that there was nothing left to check over, so his thoughts once again returned to the fight to come. The idea behind this little slice of combat had originally been Sayrn's with Kihia serving the role of her opponent but their guild master had decided after thinking for a bit that he wouldn't involve himself in such matters until something of a small trial had been passed and that was how Ni-Ju's name had ended up being tossed into the ring. Ni-Ju sighed. No one ever said that being friends with a guild master was going to be easy after all. Spotting a figure approaching from Hargeon with the sun at their back, Ni-Ju bent down to grab a double fistful of sand and waited to greet Sayrn.

She had been preparing in her lab for quite some time, "GAAAAHHHH" She screamed as she got only more and more frustrated in her search for some clothing that would not be highly contaminated by her own blood. "I guess I have no choice then . . . And it is not my first. . ." With that she prepared what she was to do and headed off to the meeting point with Ni-Ju the stand in for her guild master.

After some minor loss of way she finally ended up at the rendezvous point with the sun at her back as she smiled at the boy and held up her finger in a way that implied for him to wait, "Lemme do something quick~" with a small jaunt she went over to the entrance to the beach removing all of her clothing till she was "Naked" which in her case just meant that the lumps on her chest were showing nothing else on her body stood out apart from the almost scale like patterns on her flesh that were almost impossible to see from a distance. "S-Sorry if I am gonna be using my magic or get hurt this is to make sure my blood does not contaminate my clothes. . ." She smiled and held out her hand towards the small boy, "Name is Sayrn but you already knew that I guess~ It is nice to meet you Ni-Ju!~" She laughed nervously, "S-So shall we get ready for a fight?" she seemed nervous but behind her eyes that brain was working in full gear and observing every last movement from here on out any patterns and any habits she would learn and exploit.

Ni-Ju didn't have to wait long as Sayrn made her way down to the center of the beach where he stood and quickly excused herself to change out of her clothing, so as to avoid unnecessary damage. A short trip to the beach's entrance and back and both mages seemed complete in their individual preparations. Sayrn taking more initiative then he, calmly walked over to him and introduced herself, giving a nervous smile that he found to be somewhat infectious. Taking her hand and shaking vigorously, Ni-Ju just couldn't help but smile as well. "Its very nice to meet you as well, Sayrn." Releasing her hand, Ni-Ju gestured past her to one of the two lines he had placed in the sand after first arriving. "I have taken the liberty of marking starting points for the both of us, I hope you don't mind?." As both mages took their positions and signaled that they were ready, Ni-Ju incanted the word that he had been trusted with to activate the beaches defenses and prevent the two of them from doing each other any real harm. Crying out "Incipere!" at the top of his lungs, he watched in fascination as a thin membrane of clear substance took form between Sayrn and himself and rapidly expanded to encompass the entirety of the beach, marking the start of combat.

Intending to give this his all, Ni-Ju reached down inside himself and drew upon the power of his lineage, causing his eyes to change from blue to a swirling gold. Events to come suddenly unfolded out before his eyes, making it clear that Sayrn would be the first to attack and she would be relentless in doing so, closing the gap between them in order to prevent him from using his magic. "Not if I have any say in this." he whispered to himself quietly. Working quickly to change the vision of the future that he saw, Ni-Ju focused on the sand directly in front of Sayrn and unleashed a Macro Earth Detonation to set things off right.

I will let you sort out damage if any is to be taken but know that with the amount of sand in that area, it will be promptly reduced to slag.

The explosion was quick and near instant had it not been for her watching her enviroment she would have been hurt much worse than she was as shards of sand cut her arm from the explosion causing her to bleed already. The blood began to drip down her arm causing the now slag in front of her to begin to turn red, "D-Dang already??" She laughed and raised her arm throwing her own blood in side swipe hopping to hit Ni-Ju with it, and should it hit the blood would begin to hurt and poison him. Within moments she dashed around the slag being careful to keep an eye out for any more earthen explosions caused by Ni-Ju. Once within ten feet she grows a sack of venom in her hand and throws it down towards where Ni-Ju currently is.

Venomous Gland Duration/Cooldown: 4 Posts.

If Venomous gland hits then Ni-Ju will be poisoned and take 1/4 D-Rank damage for 4 posts.
If not then he will be fine. (Note that if it hits VG will make him grow massive pustules on the impact sites where the poison hit however when they explode with the poison from them that will NOT affect Ni-Ju or Sayrn herself due to immunity.)

Ni-Ju wasn't at all surprised as Sayrn dodged out of the way of the vast majority of his attack, taking only minor wounds from the sand that had been thrown her way by the force of the blast. Wasting no time, Sayrn launched her blood at the young mage as a form of distraction before quickly sprinting around the melted pool of glass to come through with her real attack, a sack of highly potent venom that would cause his skin to break out in weeping sores where ever it's contents struck. Little did she know that Ni-Ju wasn't exactly the type to fight fair when an opportunity made itself known. Avoiding the thrown blood with a simple side step that would carry him into perfect alignment for her second attack, Ni-Ju took her venomous spell head on. Well more like chest on, as the sack hit the ground at his feet and droplets spattered against his chest and arms, forming the noxious pustules that made her spell such a hazard to deal with.. Falling to the ground while flailing about, Ni-Ju began his most convincing crying act in order to lure her in closer and make sure that his next attack completely caught his opponent off guard. No one yet has resisted his sad form of cuteness when he turned up the moe factor to eleven and he didn't expect it to stop working now.

Venom still active for next three posts.
Dragon Spirit active for one more post.

She looked at the child who had just gotten down and was (Although not to her knowledge) acting like he was in pain and trying to look cute to catch her off guard; however, like how Sayrn had no clue he was acting Ni-Ju did not know her past and as such could not predict what would happen next. Within seconds of seeing this she dashed backwards twenty feet a distance she could recover at ten feet per second at max speed. Within moments her skin on her hands began to ripple and crack as her blood began to pool over her fingers and she grabbed her face seeming in pain and within moments let out a bellow so loud if anyone was within a foot of her they would be grabbing their ears in pain, and the bellow itself seemed a mix of rage and pain as the blood that had pooled around her fingers became full fledged claws. Within moments before even Ni-Ju would follow without his lineage active she dashed full speed within moments right to Ni-Ju's location and raised a claw to swipe at him aiming right for his lungs area while her other hand released a nova of venom that should said venom hit on the first post will slow all his movements and reactions by 50% and on the second post create 100% paralysis and lack of movement.

Up to you on whether Ni-Ju gets hit by these since she going to be brutal from here on out. But yeh I suggest looking at my magic to get an idea on how they work XD Das what I did with you .3.

Ni-Ju knew something was wrong with his plan as soon as Sayrn started to pull back rather then coming in to check on him. Fearing for his mistake, Ni-Ju acted on reflex and used the escape he had been practicing recently as she roared loudly in pain from the use of her spell and quickly moved to close the gap between them. Dropping a micro Dark detonation on his own shadow, Ni-Ju promptly rolled to his right and sent a prayer to the gods that his small attempt at playing dirty wouldn't cost him the whole fight. It seemed as if luck was at least in part with him as he avoided taking a set of foot long claws to the chest but that proved to be false as he realized that he was covered in some form of faintly green substance. Not liking the way this was headed more and more as circumstances became more well known, Ni-Ju decided to stop the tentative attacks and see exactly how much damage he could do if he had no fear of actually killing someone. Without even getting to his feet, Ni-Ju began launching his magic with wild abandonment towards Sayrn, first a micro Air detonation of the air around her face to hopefully throw her off balance, then a Gaia Detonation at her feet and finally following up with a Macro Metal detonation on the dust that would fly forth.

Stats:

She knew when she missed the strike from her claw that something was wrong as a field of shadows covered Ni-Ju. Within her mind things clicked and an explosion of air blasted her face, "GAH!" she screamed in pain as it happened and in a severe panic dashed forward right into Ni-Ju smashing him into the ground with her force as an explosion could be heard behind her and within moments another as metal shrapnel rained down onto her cutting up her arms badly. Within moments she noticed that she was blind but she could not let that hurt her. Within half a second she released a massive miasma of venom that expanded rapidly around her and half a second later released a second weaker one. To follow it up she knew Ni-Ju might be slowed so she lunged where he could be and slashed twice with both claws hoping to cut his chest at least with her claws as blood was thrown everywhere from the wounds on her arm as she swung.

Miasma CD: 2 posts.

Miasma if it hits will deal one instance of C-Rank damage and should the second wave from it hit 50% of that. The claws strikes each deal one instance of C-Rank damage and 50% D-Rank damage over time (So 2 posts.) Also note that her blood deals on instance of D-Rank damage but due to the randomness of the strikes it is up to you weather any of her blood hits Ni-Ju and to top it all off her poison will paralyze him next post after yours so note that well. Once again what hits is up to you.

Sayrn barreling out of the detonations directly into him once more caught the young mage off guard, and Ni-Ju was knocked aside amidst a small pile of rotting kelp and driftwood. The venom mage didn't stop there. Drawing upon her magic, she quickly released released a burst of opaque gas that rapidly moved outward from her body to fill the area and leapt to the spot he had just occupied, bringing her vicious looking claws around in two quick swipes which would have taken him somewhere between the chest and neck if he had been in place to receive them. Ni-Ju had gotten a nice lungful of her gas and could feel his movements beginning to slow. "Gotta settle this soon." he surmised. Armed with the knowledge that if this fight became drawn out too much longer she would almost certainly defeat him, Ni-Ju came up with a quick plan worthy of a trapper. Based upon the way Sayrn had attacked where he had been before she knocked him over, his spells had probably taken at least some effect and her ability to see was probably suffering as a result. Hoping that he was right, Ni-Ju launched into his plan, fully expecting for the next few minutes to be telling one way or the other. Drawing his pistol and starting with a micro light detonation centered as close to Sayrn's face as possible to keep any potential blindness going, Ni-Ju would then use a micro earth detonation next to her to knock her away from him and disorient her. If any of that worked then he will follow up with a barrage of pistol fire before succumbing to paralysis if not then he pretty much just lies there on the driftwood.

Stats:

With a dash she ran to go and slash towards Ni-Ju with speed like a demon until a flash blew into her eyes, "Aghh." With this she knew a problem when she felt it as she predicted another detonation coming her way as she began to pool venom into her hands as she took the full force of the earth detonation but stopping herself from being knocked back as she smiled letting the venom weave take over a she was covered in a shield of venom as she dashed towards the scent of her opponent. Within moments however she felt the ping of a bullet hitting her shield as she soon understood her situation dodging and weaving around the sounds and smells of the bullets. After taking 8 hits from the bullets and avoiding the rest as she sat there panting her body broken and hurt from the bullets and bleeding profusely as she smiled at the boy his body locked up, "That. . . Would have been worse had you been at full speed to re position that gun faster." With a small amount of assurance she had no more chances as she fired all her remaining spells at Ni-Ju his body lifeless on the driftwood as her Bone Breaker Venom and Venom Gale are fired at the boy while she activates contagion and lunges at the boy slashing at him with everything she has blood from all her bullet wounds flying everywhere in the area as she cuts and rips at Ni-Ju's location.

Cooldowns don't matter anymore if these all combine she will have enough time in the post to cut up and defeat Ni-Ju HOWEVER if in that time he is able to use even a micro detonation he can finish her off in that hit assuming he lands it in time to stop her, Your post IQ

And no matter what I had fun and I hope you did too! So whether I win or lose this Good Game Well Written!

Ni-Ju layed atop the pile of refuse where he had fallen, unable to so much as twitch a muscle in defense of himself as Sayrn fought her way through his gunshots and the blindness that was sure to have taken her sight in order to close the gap between them. As she crossed the space just in front of him to commence the series of attacks that would take him out, Ni-Ju saw a single solitary chance in which to possibly fight back. If he were to detonate the driftwood underneath him, he could easily bring this fight to a close in the form of a draw but the very idea felt hollow and more then a little bit spiteful considering the effort that both of them had poured into this. With his resolve set on the matter, Ni-Ju watched helplessly as Sayrn descended upon him with the full fury of her magic focused squarely upon his small frame.The actual mauling was just a bit anticlimactic as Ni-Ju couldn't actually feel any pain before he took enough wounds that he began to fade into unconsciousness. His last thoughts before he drifted off were quite simple but would stick with him for as long as he lived. "If I can't fight to the end and feel accomplished in what I have done then it isn't worth it to win."

She sat over the now unconscious body of Ni-Ju due to all her injuries her body was in rough shape and she had a sinking feeling that the blood would not just "Go away" after the field rose, no the toxin in her blood was too stubborn for that and she knew that it had to be dealt with swiftly. With a quick limp over to her clothes still at the entrance to the beach as she pulled out medical instruments and a small kit she kept with her at all times and went over to the small boy taking some of his blood with a small syringe and mixing it with a blue liquid that she knew as the anti venom. Once the procedure was done she cleaned his body of any remnants of her blood careful not to infect him more and sat by him waiting for the boy to wake.

One the boy would wake up she would smile at him having done medical treatment on him in the mean time making sure that his injuries were patched and fixed for the most part, "Welcome back Ni-Ju." She smiled softly and got up her blood sitting in a little pool beneath her as she sighed and looked at the beach, "I might have to come back here and clean this place of all my blood in case a regular innocent civilian comes in contact. . ." She looked at the boy and laughed, "Unlike a mage whose magic power can counter act the venom in my blood. . . A civilian when touched by my blood will have one hour to live." She sighed and looked at her wounds which she had not patched due to the fact she needed to use a special syringe at her lab that was made specifically for her body.
