DeathMatch

[Chrono Blackwyng]

I was really hoping not having to use this accursed power, but I see no other alternative, please forgive me Chrono thought as he made the last sphere float up into the air. "Blood curse #7: Vanity" the last blood sphere combusts, and an exact copy of the Phoenix before the fight began, rose from the remains of the blood. Chrono then pointed into the forest and the copy nodded before taking off after 'her' target...

[Shenzii]

I stood up, stumbling side to side. "What the hell is going on?" I held my head with one hand and felt my way around. I opened my eyes as the last wave hit and the pain faded. "I feel better... I wonder what's going on!" I decided to take to the trees and scout out up there. I spotted a blue wolf. "What the? Is that... me?" I jumped down to get a closer look.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

The copy notices Phoenix, and spawns a spear of black fire, and it forms into the same one Phoenix has. "My master sends his dearest apologies, and hopes you'll give up so the match can end quickly" it said in Phoenix's voice as it leaps towards her with the same speed from before and attempts to execute Phoenix.

[Shenzii]

"I do not accept his request. I'd rather just kill you... or have him kill me himself... unless he's to cowardly to do so." I quickly stepped out of the way. My spear appeared in my hands as I thrust it at her back. I cut down it, leaving a large gash from her shoulder to her waist.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

For the first time, the copy shows emotion in 'her' face."Very well, I see he means that much" and soon left her in a burst of fire...

"She won't go down willi-" was all the copy said before Chrono banished her and Hon'alla. "Very well, if she wishes to fight me, then I shall oblige..." Chrono takes off into the forest with unusually fast feet and leeps onto burning branches on his way towards Phoenix.

[Shenzii]

I stand and wait for him to show up. What's your reason for not fighting me... face to face?

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Because I thought you wanted me to fight seriously, or was it just a duel you wanted? Chrono draws closer, sword poised for a massive lunge.

[Shenzii]

My ears twitched. "You're not very good at the illusion of surprise you know..." I turned towards him and readied my spear. A serious fight yes, but I grow tired of fighting your cronies.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

I had to slow you down, so Hon'alla got some of your blood and I used forbidden techniques, you are now much slower, and not only is your demon gone for the match, but any attempt at telekinesis will cause massive backlash, this is how I fight when I'm serious, not angry, just serious. Chrono created a shield of dark flame using the strength regained from banishing Hon'alla, and pushed the spear away as he stabbed at her mid-section in an attempt to split her horizontally.

[Shenzii]

I quickly jumped away. "Ah, so you paralyze your enemies. That's not fair now is it..." I taunt as I thrust forward and slice his shoulder. I look at my stomach and see a small gash. "Not bad, not bad."

[Chrono Blackwyng]

its more of a fear when your opponent realizes that you are now superior to them in most aspects, especially if they have to fight an unharmed version of themselves, abilities and all. he 'replied' as he sidestepped the thrust, then leaped forward with a cross-slash.

[Shenzii]

I vanish and appear behind him. My mind lashing at itself. "AHHG!" I fall to one knee but soon rise back up. "I'm not giving up that easy" I smirked as the crystal lit up. A burst of blue energy struck Chrono and sent him backwards. "You may have taken my demon and telekinesis. but my magyk is something that is not concealable." I growled as I shot another wave at him, knocking him back further.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

"I see, guess the possiblity of a duel is gone then, since magyk is forbidden in duels." Phoenix, I hope you arn't expecting me to hold back at all, because I really did try to keep from destroying the arena, but I guess one can't achieve something without causing other things to occour. Chrono 'said' as his armor blasted off in shards. Then new, more sinister armor appeared. "Friend, if you still exist, sorry, but if I must win, i must become 'him' again, I must become Tyrus of the Black flame once again!" Chrono bellowed as his power increased yet again, sending the people in the stands near him to run in terror.

"Now, Phoenix, I am no longer the one you love, now die!!" Tyrus yelled as he swung the blade again, the reach extending with black flame.

[Shenzii]

My eyes widened as I jumped back. "Now this is a battle." I taunted. I shut my eyes and tried to find my demon. I need to get far enough to search. I  thought quickly dashing away. Come on... you have to be in there SOMEWHERE

[Chrono Blackwyng]

"Ah, so you run in fear, well that just means we get to fight that much longer!" Tyrus then leaped onto onto one of the arena walls and trailed after Phoenix, calling out black fireballs that home in on Phoenix.
