[b]Jessie[/b] [@hatakekuro] [color=f6989d]"And he doesn't, but neither does Jackie from Dragon Fang! Who would think, two such powerful guilds clashing like this? It certainly shows us such terrible...wonderment of nature at work, doesn't it! What a fantastic finish, certainly someting we all wouldn't have thought possible!"[/color] Jessie said, leaning back, flicking her mic off, She giggled at Ferris [color=f6989d]"You're just too adorable"[/color] She said, offering her a napkin, [color=f6989d]"You seem to have a bit of a sauce problem"[/color] [b]Gabriel[/b] [@t2wave] [color=8dc73f]"I guess it's just...well...I know I'm not the easiest erson to work with...but I just want to see the world a better place"[/color] Habriel said softly, [color=8dc73f]"And I don't know as if talking to someone higher up will do any good. I don't think the guild master thinks much of me either" [/color] He gave a sigh, and then pushed that all away, looking back to Ariel. [color=8dc73f]"You should try using a stone. Most people don't know they can be infused with magic, and they aren't the same as Lacrima. So, you can put some magic in, and carry it around in a pocket"[/color] He said, trying to explain it, [color=8dc73f]"And I imagine it wouldn't be as potent as a lacrima"[/color] [b]Angelo vs Jackie of the Mist Final Part[/b] Angelo looked a little annoyed that the bolt didn't go all the way through although it was vapor she ended up just blocking it. She wasn't stupid so it seemed that Angelo needed to find another way to set up the field for himself then he looked down to see a mist chain formed around his leg to anchor him down. honestly it seemed this woman didn't really think much of Angelo so Angelo just stood their however he put his hands behind his back he made small lightning bolts and threw them at the ends of the field he could only do 3 but because they were so small but highly concentrated they got to their marks quicker then his normal bolts would have. [color=yellow] you obviously don't think very highly of me do you? you really think this puny little chain is going to stop me? you know you cant get close because then I get into your protective circle and you can throw whatever you want cause it will just get shocked anyways. show me that your not wasting my efforts on this[/color] Angelo called out to her wondering if she will take the bait or not and move so Angelo can set up his last bolt... "[color=662d91]I doubt I'm wasting your time as much as you're wasting mine[/color]." Jack said."[color=662d91]True, I cannot get close to you. Such a thing would be a fools errand given your magic. It would simply lead to my lose, something I cannot afford. At the same time, surrounding myself in mist like usual is foolish since your magic can travel along it, as mist is nothing more then water vapor. However, given they are aren't trying to advance, you are likely planning something. So I simply have to stop you before that happens[/color]." That being said, she quickly had three more chains grab Angelo's other limbs, assuming he didn't break out of the first one. She was doing this to see if he could use the lightning body spell. If he did, she could make him waste magical power. If Angelo didn't get out of the chains, they would pull on his limbs until they began stretching him out, Jack aiming to dislocate Angelo's arms and legs. [color=yellow]Right like im stupid enough to let you push me before I push you[/color] Angelo said knowing that her aim was to dislocate his joints seeing as how her chains were around both his legs and an arm. That much was obvious so he knew that she wanted him to use the Zeus armor mode to try and break out however she doesn't realize that Angelo doesn't need to resort to that if its just these chains. Angelo used his hand that was caught and made solid lightning form in his hand even if they were mist in this way they were chains and chains could be cut. he slashed his chains and got free. Once Angelo was free from his chains he started to walk around her [color=yellow] yeah your not going to get anywhere with crappy mist chains against a lightning mage. now if you were a stone mage then it might have been a different story.[/color] Angelo said starting to lecture her as he got behind her position and made his final lightning bolt hit the wall now all the bolts were ready and since they were small and Angelo has been distracting her she wont notice them until its to late. Angelo then opened his arms wide [color=yellow] come on one free shot with everything you got no holding back I promise I wont move from this pose[/color] Angelo said only half lying he really wouldn't move until she did because then his plan will go into action and this mist she is so proud of will be her resting place... "[color=662d91]As you wish[/color]." Jack muttered. Seriously, he was a fool not to realize. He had been standing in her mist, which she could manipulate a shape into what she pleased. And he was still standing in it. Also, she wasn't a fool to go all out and waste magical energy. No, something small but effective would do. With a simple wave of her hand, some mist would enter Angelo's cloths and surround his legs. A second later, it would become sharp blades and stab into his flesh in multiple areas. Nothing serious, but enough to cause serious pain and more then a little bleeding. Letting out a yawn and stretched, either mocking Angelo or thoroughly unimpressed by him. Angelo groaned a little when she made her move stabbing him with her mist blades. It was all Angelo needed, once he started to falter in his concentration the trap sprung forth the 4 lightning bolts that he threw on each side of the arena had now sparked forward all going towards her and hitting her from all sides even if she blocked it if she made one wrong move she would get shocked with enough lightning to paralyze a man. [color=yellow] you got to cocky![/color] Angelo called out and he then yelled out [color=yellow] lightning magic: Zeus armor mode![/color] and with that his armor formed and as soon as it did Angelo quickly jumped over her making sure he was above her before yelling out [color=yellow] Zeus armor mode: Zeus's fury![/color] and with that 2 lightning bolts fell down then 3 then 6 until he got it up to 20 lightning bolts on her position all exploding on impact. it was the same idea he used on Damien back during the S rank exams. she would have needed a miracle to have gotten away from that unscathed... "[color=662d91]Are you don yet[/color]?" A voice asked, a short distance away from Jack's original position. She was standing there, slightly bloody and her dress tattered and burned in several places but otherwise apparently more then okay to keep fighting. The moment his trap had sprung, jack instinctively raised up a dome of mist, keeping the water vapor close enough that it was almost a dome of water, taking most of the energy out of the first four bolts and giving her barely enough time to dodge them. She foolishly lowered the dome in time to get hit by a few of Angelo's bolts. Those that missed had kicked up a decent enough dust cloud to for her to get out of the barrage by the skin of her teeth while remaining unseen. A few of her limbs were harder to move now, but she had expected this. Taking a deep breath, she figured it was time to make her big play. How best to go about it though, given her opponent's few form? She was willing to bet maintaining that form and unleashing that barrage had taken a lot out of him, but she couldn't be sure just yet. However, she knew he would still be bleeding and sooner or later blood loss would effect him. Angelo sighed softly rubbing his forehead when he heard her evidently she was able to keep going but knowing she still got hit was something. That move took a good chunk of his magic with it but he still had plenty to use his ace in the hole his next form however that wasn't the issue since all that moving around has caused him to bleed more he didn't have a lot of time before the blood loss would take him down for her[color=yellow] you must have gotten really lucky to survive that move. ill need to name that maneuver when im done with this.[/color] Angelo said laughing softly but he knew he had to end this soon but how since they were more or less back to square one but this time they were both running on low time. Angelo saw that she was gripping one of her arms which meant that his bolts must have done a number on her ability to move it so he had to capitalize on it. Angelo decided to just keep hitting her until she thinks Angelo is out of magical energy then she would try to go in for the kill and he could show her his true power. Angelo took a deep breath to calm himself and try to slow his bleeding down before he started his hover again like in the beginning but this time he was faster with his armor on. Now Angelo was going in for close range combat with his armor on he was faster then any ordinary fighter and as a result her best bet was to start dodging his punch and kicks to her down to the ground... "Some luck. Mostly reflexes. Life-time of training helps you react to danger more quickly." Jack said, testing her arm a bit further while still watching Angelo out of the corner of her eye. Luckily, it was still able to move, something she knew she would likely need. Turning back to her opponent, she saw that he planned on using brute force to take her down. And his armor increased his speed, allowing his first hit to make it mark and send her flying. The area he hit hurt like hell, but she got up and dusted herself off all the same. She likely had some broken bones in that area now, possible internal bruising. She could tolerate this kind of pain, just like she could tolerate whatever else he planned on inflicting on her. Glancing back, she saw home come at her to continue his assault. In response, she raised a wall of mist which turned into a wall of mist daggers. Angelo, with the speed he was moving at, would need to have quick processing prowess to register that continuing his attack was a bad idea. Despite being made of mist, these daggers had all the properties of a real dagger, meaning they would be as hard as steel and as deadly as any other blade. Angelo saw the daggers just in time to dodge out of way dashing back a little but Angelo needed to keep the pressure on her otherwise he would run out of time and the blood loss would start to take effect on him so as soon as he gained some distance he got out two lightning bolts and made them act like swords for him. She wasn't the only one to make weapons out of their element. This time however he threw them both in quick succession of each other he knew that he wall would distort the bolt and leave her unharmed but he added more power to this and the first bolt would indeed be distorted however in that small window of time the other lightning bolt would pass through it like a sword and hit her where she stood with enough power to paralyze her and if she tried dodging then Angelo would simply get to her before she could pull off that wall of mist again... "[color=662d91]Enough. I tire of this[/color]." Jack said as Angelo formed his swords. From her, an explosion of mist occurred, covering a large potion of the arena. Some of the mist touched Angelo's sword, seeping their strength as they traveled through the mist. Jack also conjured up a wall of mist, blocking one blade and getting hit by the second, though by the time it hit, it was only average in power. Snapping her fingers, the entire dome of mist turning into a swarm of daggers, all of them pointed at Angelo. "[color=662d91]I've lost to the mages of Phoenix Wing twice. I do not plan on doing so again[/color]." She said, giving Angelo the first serious look she had given him the entire match. Her eyes where narrowed and looked like the eyes of a cornered jungle cat. Beautiful but fierce, ready to do whatever she needed to win. With another snap of her fingers, all the daggers began flying at Angelo. She didn't want to kill him, so she made sure those that were aimed at vitals would only inflict minor injuries, though doing so required immense concentration on her part, leaving her vulnerable unless she stopped the attack. Angelo grinned as she decided on using her big finisher it seemed that she was going to rain daggers on him this time just as the daggers were about to fly he whispered to himself [color=yellow]Zeus armor:[/color][color=blue]Mach 2[/color] and just as Angelo said it his armor turned bright blue. Angelo was able to move even faster and while he got hit by a few of the daggers they couldn't inflict enough injury to stop his charge through the hail of daggers and once Angelo got close he jumped in the air and gave her a hard kick in the chest with enough force to break through stone and enough electricity to paralyze even the strongest of men. Unfortunately Angelo quickly turned off his Mach 2 armor mode before it would start to eat away at his flesh itself....he still needed to be ready for the next match anyway... The punch hit home and Jack was sent flying back and into the closest arena wall, causing a wall of dust of erupt. When it cleared, she was still standing, but just barely. Her bones were crushed, her internal organs bruised or damaged to hell, and she was coughing up blood. The only reason she could still move was because even though her body couldn't, her mind was still working well enough to make wires of mist and attach them to her body to allow her to move. The only reason she was alive was due to her using Mist Body on all the organ she needed to live, such as her heart, brain, and liver. "[color=662d91]So desperate for a win, you're willing to kill it seems[/color]." She said, coughing up another decent amount of blood. She knew if she kept this up, she was liable to die. After all, getting his at Mach 2 was no joke. How she was still alive as it was, she didn't know, but she still planned on winning and pressing forward. [color=yellow] not kill just mortally wound, now we are both running out of time so now if you got no more tricks I would suggest you yield now or it will get much worse for you. I don't want a cute girls death on my conscious[/color] Angelo said taking a stance again but it was mostly for show since his vision was starting to get blurry those wounds he got earlier were starting to take their toll on him and while he might be short on time hers was even shorter. Angelo wasn't planning to get any nightmares by killing her but neither will he loose to anyone. He will win the tournament and finally prove that greatness can come from the slums and a dark family like him he had an ideal worth fighting for so he wouldn't give up... Jack managed to have enough energy to actually look shocked at what Angelo said. "[color=662d91]Cute...girl[/color]?" She repeated, her tone dumbfounded. She coughed up a bit more blood before speaking again."[color=662d91]No one has ever called me cute before. I'm pretty sure I'm not really[/color]." Angelo gave a weak laugh at that [color=yellow] in all honesty im surprised that nobody has said it yet. You are cute, although in all honesty you were much cuter in the beginning before we got to this point. If you want after this we can go out and talk maybe over tea or coffee whatever you like. although hopefully after you get a visit from the medic if you die then I wont be able to tell you how much fun this fight was[/color] Angelo said laughing a little again at the thought he was asking out a girl during their battle and even though he pretty much crushed her ribs and she is coughing up blood she was still cuter then most girls hes talked to... Never had Jack have an actual love interest, would be interesting to say the least.)) Jack managed a smile and closed her eyes. "[color=662d91]Can we call it a draw. Neither of us feels like losing and if we keep going we'll likely die. Perhaps a draw would be the best outcome[/color]." She said Angelo then put his guard down and smiled [color=yellow] deal, if it means we both walk away and I get to talk to you out of here then I don't see why not[/color] Angelo said as he weakly walked over to her and shook her hand softly, such soft hands and she was even cuter up close. [color=yellow] we want to call this a draw![/color] he called out to everyone including the judge Jack watched him approach and shook his hand as well, though her grip was very weak. "[color=662d91]A... deal then[/color]." She said before the wires of mist vanished and she fell forward, completely unconscious now. Angelo groaned softly as she got on top of him and at the moment her weight was causing more bleeding. he quickly got her to move slightly at least so that her whole body wasn't on top of him. however when she dropped so did Angelo and he was to weak to stand up anymore. He raised his hand up and called out medic please! Angelo called out to tired to move anymore and his lightning armor gone by the time she fell on him. [color=ec008c]"Ah, well. Another interesting battle! Well, I'd have to say, in the interest of fairness, i have to say, I think this battle deserves a tie!"[/color]
