New People!(Darah)

[Leon]

Today the short, spikey, golden, blonde haired boy walked out into the training grounds looking for someone to have a good spar with. His brown eyes where able to pick up nothing except the trainign grounds. His ears where able to pick up the sounds of birds. His red vest hung open over his white t-shirt, and his slightly baggy tan cargo shorts that hung alittle past his knees where his normel garb. His spear and the magnet that usuelly held it to his back where on the ground next to him as he sat cross legged awaiting someone to enter the place of battle.

Leon would mess around with some cheap parler tricks making the magnet hover around like a saucer. UFO even. He was just hoping someone to come, he needed the practice esspecielly for what he had in store for the world. He needed the training to become strong enough for long range goals that where out of range for the moment. But still, he wondered just who it wouldbe.

[Darah]

The training grounds. Darah's favourite place to be ever since she came to Arcane Academy two years ago. It was a place where Darah could get entertainment, watching the fights or even be part of the fights. Today as she walked into the training grounds, there was no one there save a blonde haired boy a few years older than her. Well... Just about everyone is older than the 14 year old half demon.

With no one else to challenge to a fight, Darah came to the conclusion that the young man playing frisbee would have to suffice. He looked bored anyways. Darah walked up to the blonde in her white halter top and denim blue minis. She wondered how the blonde boy would react to her pale greenish skin, or the patches of scales on her body or even the pair of two inched long horns on her head. Carrying Gekko in her arms, she asked the boy, "Are you... expecting somebody?"

[Leon]

Hearing a person walking towards him, Leon looked up to this girl who was standing there. Different from the others, but no different from the type of people he met on his hunts as a child. He grew up in a magicel land, only killing elk, or deer for food, so he was bound to run into something along the lines of demon, but they did always intruiege him. So he stood up a bit slowly, so not to make any threatening motions.

"No. . .Just waiting. . ."

the magnet would go back to its place with the spear and stick to it. here he had his first fight every, and it was fun, but there was very little magic involved, he hoped to get more of it in if he could only sum up the words to ask this girl to a spar. but with alittle effort he forced himself to ask.

"would you. . . .Spar me?"

[Darah]

Darah was right. The boy did want a spar. Since she was planning to fight him anyways, and the boy asked nicely, why not? Darah nodded her head in agreement as she walked over to one of the spectator benches and gently placed Gekko on it. She then turned around and walked back to meet the spikey headed boy. His hair reminded her of a pineapple.

She stood there, awaiting the boy to make his first move. The latter had a spear. She only had her platinum claws. She could already feel the adrenaline level pumping through her and it wouldn't be long before hex+ takes effect. To allow herself maximum concentration during the fight, she casted state of mind on herself.

[Leon]

Taking a step back even still once they where ready. He grew a seriouse look on his face as he concentrated. The magnet lost its magnetism, and Leon lifted his left hand out as the spear rose to him. It flouted over and landed soflty in his grasp. But as the gloved hand and the spear cam within inches a static bolt could be heard between them. He would keep concentrating as static began to fill around him jumping from his body to the ground, or other parts of his body. His cloths began to act like a wind was brushing through.

His body began to emit a glow of sorts as he prepared himself for this fight. He stuck the spear in the ground, he put up his middle and index finger infront of his face, and then put his other index and middle finger in the cup created with the remaining part of the hand and spoke old words. He pointed the fingers at himself and he was ready as he shot himself with it. It hurt him, but he was told it would subside.

"Yathos sun Vra und praethee." 'Divinity graces, acceleration.'

[Darah]

The moment Leon's face grew serious, Darah knew that the fight had begun. She watched as Leon meddled with the magnet and his spear, and saw the sparks around his body. Her opponent seemed to be an elementalist. The electric type so far as she can tell. It excited her. She hadn't fought an electric elementalist before.

As her excitement levels rose, so did Darah's adrenaline level. The adrenaline in her blood sparked up hex+. Slowly, Darah's horns grew longer and sharper, serrated. Her hair grew longer too and grew jet black. A jet black color began to fill her eyes starting from top to bottom until her eyes were fully black. Dark scales began growing out of Darah's skin and a secretion of coating mucus covered her.

For now, she wouldn't use her poisons, not yet. Nor did she need hex. She simply waited for the opponent to make the first move.

[Leon]

He gripped the spear harder as the winning of the glove would be heard he would rush towards this new form of hers. It seemed powerful and Leon was liking that thought. He had this smile on his face, one of battle, but this would only be his second fight ever. He would pull back the spear behind him along with his left arm. His right hand would be out infront of him fully extended and the hand open like a claw. Electricity would swarm the outstretched hand and he would draw it back like he was going to throw a palm strike, but he twisted around the other way and swung his spear around to hit with the pole part instead of the blade itself. He aimed high, around the shoulder, to head region.

He did this as an opening attack, but if it missed Leon still had that electricle ball in his right hand. He may have to use it if he missed, but that was all up to Darah. Her abilities would be the deciding factor in almost every move Leon made. If she dodged, or blocked, or attacked. He wasn't going to hold back any attacks, but maybe she could teach him a thing or two on how to defend. Since this wasn't a seriouse fight, there was no need for Leon to try and use his spear as a deadly weapon.

[Darah]

(Sorry if I misread your post >< I'm terrible with fights)

Leon advanced upon Darah as the latter's mind began to calculate the distance between the two of them and measure the speed Leon was coming in at. The estimation produced was Leon having about half her speed. Give Darah numbers and equations such as one plus one and she'll shrug an I-don't-know. However, ask Darah to calculate one's speed or measure one's strength and she could give you an answer of 90% accuracy.

As Leon approached, Darah noted the position of his body. His left hand was on his spear, holding it behind his back. His right hand was out in front of him and Darah could see electricity building up in her hand. Darah wasn't afraid of the electricity. The sticky coating mucus around her had a nulling effect on electricity. And to top it off, the mucus was also water proof and had high temperature resistances. However, Leon's right hand if struck on Darah would still hurt her.

A change in movement! Leon changed from the normal running pattern and his body started twisting around. What was about to happen? Darah saw it, saw the spear coming towards her. The saving grace was that the spear had to travel a wide round just to get her. Darah raised her right platinum claws to block the blow from the hilt of Leon's weapon.

For awhile, Leon had his back onto her. The hidden spear attack was a rather good one, but not that effective if used on a faster opponent. Plus, you had to turn your body around which left your behind begging for someone to attack it. As this was nothing but a small training session between Leon and Darah, she held back on her poisons and spat out only a small amount of pain poison at Leon's back. It would have to seep through his shirt first before the poison could hurt him.

[Leon]

As he had suspected it was blocked, he could not tell just yet that the poisen had hit him in the back. He let go of the spear for a split second to keep twisting the way he was, and regrabbed it. He would sen the electrical palm strike in to the lower abdomen, but thats about the same time the poisen would eat through the vest and shirt. So the strike would lose it's electrical charge, but still be send. He would drop his spear though.

((OOC: Posted anyways.))

[Darah]

(x.x sorry for the late and short post. Not feeling well)

Leon had continued turning without any look of pain on him. Apparently, the poison has not reached his skin yet. Darah knew that she was too close to her opponent, especially one with a spear, and needed to get away. As Leon turned, he attacked Darah with an electrical punch. As Darah had feared, he was too close and the attack hit her. Strangely however, the electricity had gone away before the blow hit. The poison must have reached Leon. Good, now the pain will increase slowly with every passing minute. Only by a little bit though since the amount of poison Darah had spat wasn't much.

Darah stumbled backwards a few steps after being hit, keeping her eyes on Leon at all times. She could take things easy for awhile as long as the poison continued its job.

[Leon]

Leon had landed the blow and was able to force Darah back a bit. this was good, but he was slowly being injurred more and more by the burn on his back, what the hell was going on? Leon had no clue, but he would do what he alwasy did. He would concentrate his entire electricel flow through his body. A small glow overflowing his body as static began to overtake the area around him. He stood up and looked at Darah with alittle extra Umph in his step since he was fighting pain he would switch the spear to his right hand. He would hold it perallel out infront of him and turn to the side to make himself a smaller target.

Now his right arm and hand fell to his side, the side that wasn't showing. But a glow was obviousely coming from the area as he summoned up the energy and magic for the spell. He pulled it up infront of him with complaint from his body as he began to buckle a bit. He would point it seemingly at Darah.

"RAH-KEN!~"

The sound of the word itself echoed as if it where going against nature. The blast would fly towards Darah, along with 1/3 of his strength and energy, and the rest of his abilities. But the lightning ball was not aimed directly at Darah, no it was more off and aimed for the ground instead. The explosion would throw dirt, rock, and other materiels into the air. Leon would already be charging through it and would still have his spear held horizontally out infront of him as he would whip it in a short slash towards Darah with theflat part of the blade to knock her to the side.

Why use the strongest spell you can conjur? Intimidation. . . Yes intimidation was the factor he was trying to play off of. either she fell for the rouse of being so powerful, or she didn't but it was most likely a trick that wouldn't last long either way. After thwaping her with the flat of the blade, Leon planned on stepping back into the flying dirt, to try and give himself a few moment to catch his breath, but this was all of course assuming she didn't stop him in the middle of conjuring the spell, since it did take a bit of time and energy, as well as full concentration.

[Darah]

Darah watched with enthusiasm as Leon charged up his arm. He still didn't know that Darah's coating mucus was an electric insulator and electricity just cannot get through it to hit her. And he was charging so much energy into his attack. What a waste.

Darah stood still as Leon unleashed the electrical energy out at her. Something did not seem right. This large ball of energy was not heading directly for her but was going a little off course. At the angle it was travelling at, the energy blast was dipping downwards towards the ground. Darah braced for impact, crossing her arms in front of herself to shield her from the shrapnel which would be thrown in all directions when the energy blast hit.

The huge electrical blast hit the ground in front of Darah and she felt as if someone had thrown a grenade in front of her feet. She was flung backwards although she kept on her feet as small pieces of rocks, sand and stone bruised her and cut her slightly at several parts of her body. She could not see for all the debris in front of her and changed her vision to heat vision instead. Now her world was seen in mostly black, with little green objects - the debris - flying about her and a red and orange figure rushing towards her: Leon.

Ignoring the little annoyances by the debris, Darah rushed at Leon to take him on. His spear, that was what Darah had to look out for. She had her focus on it and as the distance between the two got close, Leon swung the flat of his blade at her. She was ready however and her increased reflexes in hex+ form allowed her to react quickly to the attack. With her laft hand, Darah applied force to the spear blade in the opposite direction it was coming to keep it at bay. Meanwhile, her right hand would take a slash at Leon's lower abdomen. Her attack could be easily dodged by moving backwards, but it will throw the opponent off balance and that was what Darah was counting on.
