((Battle Music: White Knight, Black Heart (Tohru's theme)))

"Tohru-senpai! Don't give up!"

"Keep going Tohru-senpai! We know you can beat her!"

Tohru's body ached from the massive hit, yet still she stood on her feet, launching another flurry of swift attacks towards Asuka, the girl blocking and evading each and every single one, landing even more hits against the battle-scarred prince. ~"Why must you continue to fight, dear prince?"~ Midswing Asuka scoffed at her, Tohru quickly dodging her blade with a sidestep and following up with a mighty thrust, sadly evaded. ~"the longer this continues, the weaker you shall become. Surrender now and I will finish this duel quickly!"~ But surrender she wouldn't. She may had been accosted by Kaname and the others earlier, but still the fighting spirit roared in her heart like a mighty white lion, even if her body was like a chipped and rusted sword.

Raising her sword high over her head, she leapt into the air with a powerful jump strike. Twas parried by Asuka, but a flaw in her strategy, leaving herself open for a massive slash across her midriff. ~"Damn you!"~ She snarled stumbling back, gripping her sore belly. ~"No...I refuse! I REFUSE TO LOSE TO YOU AGAIN, TOHRU-SAN!"~ But on her feet she was, a mad menagerie of slashes thrusts and uppercuts of her wooden blade towards Tohru, sporadic in nature yet...oh so predictable. The same strategy as always. I can read Asuka's moves like a book by now. Now Tohru had the upper hand of the battle, her sword clashing against Asuka's with every move, every counter attack. Not a single opening she gave, but plenty Asuka inadvertently betrayed. Anger, the more Tohru fueled it within her, the sloppier it made Asuka upon the battlefield, her form faltering, giving far too much leeway. Finally...this duel would be hers.

"Now!" Asuka's last attack was swiftly parried, Tohru daring to grip the blade of her sword in mid-thrust and push it away, following it up....with one last blow to her upper back. "It's OVER!"

~"GYAH! NO!"~ In one final move, the girl was disarmed, Tohru's wooden sword burying into her backside with a loud, thundering crack and a cry of pain from Asuka. Twas almost in slow motion as she fell to the ground, collapsing in such utter agony into a thick cloud of dust.

Once it had settled...there she lied, defeated and once more...disgraced. No...why?! I almost had her...almost! D-dammit! Tohru stood over her, their eyes meeting once more in a heated glare between adversaries, but even so, Tohru's eyes softened a little...when she witnessed something in Asuka's. Were those....tears? Tohru...she was all fired up to defeat this girl in battle...and yet...she couldn't help but feel...sorrow for her, seeing the pain in her eyes, not from her battle wounds, no, but...from losing to her...again. Despite the cheers and applause of her adoring fans....this didn't feel like a victory at all for the prince of Claymore.

~"Go ahead..."~ Wearily Asuka muttered, her face still lying in the dirt. ~"Finish me off... I will not endure the shame any longer. You've bested me again, Itagaki Tohru, now...end it."~ If these were any other circumstances, then possibly she would have landed the ending blow, but....such gasps erupted from the audience when they saw her, the great and mighty warrior, a swordswoman of such strength and fervor...lay down her sword and offer her hand to the supposed evil princess, looking up at her in bewilderment.

"I...I won't." Tohru whispered. "The way of a true swordsman is not to conquer with bloodshed and zero remorse. It is to use your blade and heart as one, to protect those who mean the most to you. I failed to protect Chizuru-chan, and for that...I'm sorry...Asuka-san. But rest assured, I will find the one responsible for her death and bring them to justice, not just for me...but for you...and your family as well." Asuka, she remained in silence, her face saying it all, utter shock and confusion. Yet she reached for Tohru's hand, reluctantly, and let the girl help her to her feet. ~"I...I still have yet to forgive you for what you've done."~ She hissed, albeit a bit softer than her usual bitter tone. ~"But I suppose I will accept your apology. When you find Chizuru's killer, stab them through the heart...for me."~ Tohru nodded in reply, releasing Asuka's hand, hers retreating to her side. You have my word, Asuka-san." Then, a cheerful grin crossing her lips, "Besides, this just means we're even now."

DPRPGC #7: Hail the Glorious Leader

Hail to the Glorious Leader

Hello my glorious people...I've missed you.

Yes, it is I, "R", resurrected from the flames of tyranny that once sought to burn me away from the annals of history. In truth, I did fake my untimely demise and had my beloved proxy Rhea sell the ruse to you. I do realize it was a most heinous and uncouth act to dampen your spirits my brothers and sisters, but even so, all warfare is based upon deception.

With the glorious leader and his chantry now believing that they have slain me, he intends to make his boldest and indeed I say most foolish of maneuvers across the chessboard of our violent and vehement fray, a public appearance. On the 15th of February, the glorious leader shall make his arrival to the capital city to congratulate the men and women who honorably sacrificed their lives to defeat the insurrectionist known simply as "R". It is then...I shall make my final move.

But this task I cannot accomplish alone, my dear friends in the resistance. I will need your help.

You have all strived greatly, some of you have suffered even more, but I assure you, the fruits of your labor will indeed be sweet and heavy upon the tongue. It will be my, no, OUR greatest honor to finally cleave the head off the dragon that is our adversary, and to see all who so foolishly and blindly follow him, descend with him into the abyss of obscurity forevermore!

The glorious leader shall not claim victory this day, but us, we shall grasp it tight in our blood-soaked hands and hold it high above our heads as the banner of our new country, our new beginning but wave amidst the dying winds of adversity.

I say once more my brothers and sisters, do not falter, do not lose hope, for even beyond the most tumultuous and blackest of storm clouds, the sun shines bright always.

We will prevail, we will fight onward to victory, we will show no fear nor apprehension towards our enemies.

We...will...win!

~R

True/False Game

Eh....true, I guess? I mean a villain to one is a hero to another, but okies.

T/F: If you were a guy, you'd go gay for Peter Steele

GAME: Crush A Wish

Granted, but due to it constantly being summer, temperatures continue to rise into the high 100s all over the globe. Massive heatwaves melt the polar ice caps and churn up incredibly powerful severe thunderstorms producing tornados all across the Midwestern United states. The costly damage to numerous farms and ranches are in the billions of trillions of dollars, sending food costs rocketing through the roof and sparking full blown riots all across the country, soon the chaos reaching across the globe and inciting a third destructive world war where all countries unleash their nuclear payload at once, eradicating the human population.

I wish Valentines day was turned into another holiday like....national hipster beatdown day! >:D

...

^This. @Ryu I can't tell you enough how true this is. Since I started working and surrounding myself with new people and new friends, I have been the happiest ever. I used to suffer majorly with depression and was on the brink of suicide. I knew I needed to get out of whatever storm I was consuming myself in, so I just figured one day I would apply for a job. Yeah, work does suck and the DM's an asshat, but all my co-wokers are really cool and fun to hang around. I swear I haven't smiled this much in practically ages.

Oh and as for that problem, the solution's right there. "Friend" button ;3

Problem: Thanks to my tax refund I now have a PS4 and Bloodborne....but THE FUCKING PACKAGE IS IN WISCONSIN AND I WANT IT NOOOOOOOWWWW!!!!!

@Rusalka

"You can do it, Tohru-senpai! We believe in you!"

"Yeah! Beat her to a pulp, Prince Tohru!"

The girls cheered gathering around the two combatants outside the school. Tohru, famed Prince of Claymore vs Asuka, infamous Princess of Devils. Two rival warriors of two long feuding families now facing each other upon the battlefield, swords gripped tight for the anticipation of another to strike. "Well?" Tohru hissed behind clenched teeth. "Are you going to attack?"

Asuka snickered, an insolent grin bared behind her blade, ~"Only a fool launches the first attack. My dear, and certainly not am I a fool."~ As I will not be foolish to let you beat me again Tohru-san.

"Heh." But to Asuka's dismay, Tohru merely scoffed at her clever insult. "Then I guess I'm a fool. I tire at words. From now on, our swords shall speak for us!" And Tohru's sword indeed spoke for her, charging headlong at the red haired princess with a mighty shout. In one fell swoop, she lifted into the air her sword and brought it crashing down upon Asuka, but with swift and brutal retaliation her sword was blocked, opening her up for a heavy hit to her torso and her leg.

Dammit, she wasn't thinking straight. If she thought the pain before was jarring, it was a simple sliver compared to the hurt Asuka was inflicting on her.
