DeathMatch: Tournament of Blood

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono was going to swing again, but when Blaire came into his view, he stopped his swing and reached out with his arm to catch her. He managed to get a hold of her midsection and then spun around before Hera could grasp the situation. He then raised his sword in a defensive stance and made sure Blaire was far away from Hera's swings. Ironically to his intentions, he kept Blaire held tightly right in front of him while he kept his sword behind to deflect. I don't know wheter to be angry that you stopped my flurry of attacks, or happy that you launched in to stop our fight of blood...

[Shenzii]

I'm Mad You have stooped to the lowest of lows!!! She shouted. Her eyes turned to a fury of red and black. The red flickered like fire. She looked at Y. Her face in anger and agony.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Hold it, before you start condemning my actions, I have not killed a single civilian, and none of my flames have harmed them. As for how I treated the ones who are now dead. You never offered a solution to the issue, so I went with what I thought was the right way to scare them off.... Blaire, since you told me about your thing with Y, I trust that you can handle yourself around him. Now give me the same trust and let me finish this decade long vendetta! He was still blocking, but being on the defensive was starting to wear on his patience.

[Shenzii]

Blaire vanished from his hold, a pained mist lingered him, and passed to Y. A signal was left for Y. A trail to the hill--The sun was now setting. Blaire hugged her knees closely to her.

[Entaru]

Y looked at Chrono and shook his head.  At least he hid what he did, rather than advertising it.  Y dispersed and flew into the air like a plague of locusts.  He floated through the air and settled next to Blaire on the hill.  "You have quite the taste in men...why do you try to help people like us?"

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono felt her leave his grip, but couldn't really feel the pain of regret. Yea, I've done enough carnage to satisfy the rage.... He thought before blocking Hera's blade one more time, then disarming her. "Please give up, killing and fighting has lost all of its interest..." Hera looked away in shame when she got the impression that he only dragged on the fight for his own enjoyment and not because she actually had a chance to win. He dispersed his sword and began burning the blood and the bodies of those that had fallen. Hera joined in soon after and then went into the Arena to get the priest's body out of the stands and somewhere that was equally unoccupied.

Chrono had taken off the bulk of his armor and then walked out of the arena, heading over to the transport station and contemplating his options.

[Shenzii]

Blaire sighed and only looked on. The sky looked a blaze with the setting sun. "Because. Everyone has the chance to change. They just don't see the opportunity. So I help present it. Hoping to bring them a better life." She looked at Y and bit her bottom lip. "Why do you think I help people like you and Chrono?"

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono had a brief impulse to take a transport, to try to run away from the consenquences like he did before. Instead, he got up and walked away, bringing his helmet to Hera and wiping some of his blood on it. "Take this to your leaders, please tell them that the Heretic is gone... I hope you can elaborate on how it happened." he said with a smile, and Hera returned it, taking the helmet and taking the second to last transport out of Deathmatch for the day. Chrono stretched and toyed with the devices he got to defend himself from Y, and put them in his pocket, hoping to never use them.

He might not realize how his actions impacted Blaire's idea of him, but he felt much better that he could finally leave his past behind. Now to greet my beloved, and hopefully get to know another associate...

[Shenzii]

Blaire looked away from Y. Her mind was racing. I can feel you fallin' away.No longer the lost, no longer the same. And I can see you starting to break,I'll keep you alive. If you show me the way. Forever and ever. The scars will remain. I'm fallin' apart. Leave me here forever in the dark

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono felt a voice try to rattle his mind, but he resisted the effects, probably because he wasn't troubled anymore about being attacked just because who he was. If you are fallin' apart, I'll put you back together again, if you are in the dark, I will be the fire that lights the way; for without you, I would not be able to become what you needed. was what he mused, not knowing if she could hear it or not. He stopped at a vendor and got a few snacks, not knowing if Blaire actually had any meals in awhile.

[Shenzii]

Blaire shut her eyes and layed back in the cool grass. Her slender body made a small impression in the tall grass. Her tail lay next to her.

[Entaru]

"I believe...that because you could not help yourself, years ago, that you feel obligated to save others from becoming something that they hate...at least, that is what I think."  Y layed next to Blaire and stroked her hair as he looked into the setting sun.  "I have never felt that I could even be salvaged...let alone saved.  Yet now...I wonder if I can change."

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono didn't go back, because knowing the situation, she probably wouldn't want to be anywhere near Deathmatch itself with what he did, so he went over to the few exspanses of green land, and figured she might be around there, although he couldn't find her because her connection to him was gunked up with feelings of isolation and depression.

[Shenzii]

"Perhaps that is another reason. Everyone has the choice to change. You just need to want it bad enough; to have the taste of change on your tongue." She looked at Y and smiled but then quickly looked away.

[Entaru]

"What is the matter?"  Y placed his hand on Blaire's shoulder. "Something is bothering you, but I can't read it.  Is there something you're not telling me?"
