Damon spoon backwards in the air, before he landed on his feet's, and had to dodge ones again as the chandelier above him came alive and crashed down. So at last Damon landed in squat, looking up as he breathed heavily for air, and pushed up his glasses.

Xander, didn't speak, as he slowly stepped forward, but merely looked at Damon. "I think I heard of this ability." He told.

"Oh?" Damon asked.

"But I thought it went extinct." Xander commented, without moving a face muscle.

"As you can see, it didn't." Damon told standing up.

"A shame." Xander nodded. "I heard the people whom practised art, refused to take sides in the war.. without realising there is no such thing as being neutral. So suddenly, they stood alone against the entire world, naturally they were all wiped out." He stated. "But apparently that is not true. It wont make any difference though, you wont get out." He stated, lifting his hand, and suddenly the floor beneath Damon started to move.

Wide-eyed Damon looked down, before he reached up his hands, and now hang in the ceiling from silver threats.

"That wont help you." Xander commented in a slight sigh, as the very thing Damons silver threats were hanging in, came loose, and Damon fell down.

"WOARGH!" Damon exclaimed, as he fell down.

Xander didn't move at all as he merely looked at Damon. "I told you, you wont leave this place." He stated, opening his hand to make the floor open beneath Damon ones more.


"DARK SHOCK!" Elly shouted. "DARK SHOCK! DARK SHOCK! DARK SHOCK!" it didn't help much, for every single Dark shock she send out, Julian merely skilfully dodged it as he came running closer and closer.

Then Ryu came running from behind, to engage him in combat, which Julian also skilfully dodged, to trip the fishwoman on the floor, making Ryu land on her back.

"Heh." Julian smired, as he turned back to Elly, only to be surprised when two hands grabbed his leg, and it was his turn to fall down on the ground.

"You underestimate me." Ryu spoke as she looked at Julian, with none-moving eyes.

In the next turn, Ryu was suddenly under Julian. "Oh really?" He asked, as he lifted his knife. "Time to fillet you fish!" he stated, only to be hit in his back as Elly shouted.

"DARK SHOCK!" Sending Julian into the wall. "There's two of us, don't forget that." Ely swallowed.

"Tch." Julian snorted as he wiped his mouth with his hand. "Thank you for that reminder, I wont forget it again." He stated, and came charging ones again.


"ARGHHH!" Yanopp screamed as she ran basically in circles, avoiding the tight fists raining down over her.

"You're doing great!" Alejandro shouted from where he laid on the floor. "Watch out for your left!" he stated, making Yanopp dodge to the right, only to be hit with a fist, that send her head first into the ground.

"ARE YOU TRYING TO GET ME KILLED!?" Yanopp shouted as she lifted her head.

"Ups, I meant the other left." Alejandro apologised. "LOOK OUT!" he exclaimed, just so Yanopp could jump up and avoid yet another fist.

"Stand still." Garzia hissed.

Yanopp of cause did the upset as she was send on another run. "Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!" she yelled as she barely avoided one massive fist after the other.

"Only having been hit twice, that's pretty good!" Alejandro cheered in a grin. "Maybe you can even get another attack in soon!" he stated giving her a thumbs up.

"SHUT UP!" Yanopp shouted as she kicked Alejandro in the head, so he landed straight back, on his back with open mouth, then she herself landed in front of the door, that went into the room with the ancient weapon, looking up at the massive Garzia.

"Now I got you." Garzia stated as he towered over Yanopp.

"Can I just ask.. Didn't those led bullets in your head hurt.. You know.. Just a little bit?" Yanopp asked hopelessly. Referring to the rain of bullets that had just harmlessly fallen off the large man.

"Pistol bullets doesn't even harm me, this skin is tough as metal." Garzia informed, banging on his own chest.

"It's true." Alejandro told from the floor, where he laid with his arms behind his head. "No-body has a thicker skull than Garzia, as I have always said."

"YOU COULD HAVE TOLD ME THAT BEFORE!" Yanopp shouted at Alejandro.

"I thought you didn't want my help." Alejandro commented.

"One day, I am going to kill you." Yanopp hissed.

"There are definitely worse ways to go." Alejandro smirked, making Yanopp bite together, while Garzia was slowly raising his fist.

And Yanopp looked up, to just managed to dodge last second, so the first rammed into the door instead, and splintered it into pieces.

Wide-eyed Yanopp looked behind her, then screamed. "WOAAAH! THAT WOULD HAVE KILLED!" she yelled.

"Probably." Alejandro exhaled. "You did manage to open a locked door though, good job Yanopp!" he stated, giving Yanopp another thumbs up.

"WOULD YOU SHUT UP!" Yanopp shouted at him.

"I'm just trying to give moral support." Alejandro told back.

"IT'S NOT FUCKING HELPING!" Yanopp shouted.

"And here I am just trying to help." Alejandro told innocently, sending Yanopp a pair of puppy eyes.

"Jesus Christ." Yanopp hissed face-palming herself. "Has he always been this fucking annoying?" she asked Garzia pointing towards Alejandro.

"Yes." Garzia nodded. "When he was ten, he spoiled all the sake in stock with garlic and blamed it on me." He informed.

"He did?" Yanopp asked. "You poor dear, it must have been tough to be stuck on this person for nineteen years!"

"You have no idea." Garzia replied.

"Hey! That's not true! And that person wants to kill me!" Alejandro pointed out.

"Alejandro now you're lying again, about it not being true I mean." Yanopp sighed. "Who can blame him for wanting to kill you, I mean.. You are you." She stated.

Stunned Alejandro looked at Yanopp with wide open mouth, then crossed his arms as he snorted an looked away.

Garzia blinked. "How did you do that?" he asked Yanopp. "No-body has ever managed to make him react like that!"

"I don't know." Yanopp replied. "I just can't stand that smirk."

"No one can." Garzia informed.

"I can see why." Yanopp exhaled deeply, and the both sighed deeply.

Alejandro blinked at them, looking mildly disturbed. "Don't.. converse with him." He tried to say. "He's trying to kill me!"

"Of cause he does, you are annoying." Yanopp stated as she rolled her eyes.

And Garzia chuckled lightly. "It is a shame though I have to kill both of you." He stated. "Him I don't mind. But you are not so bad for a pirate girl." He stated.

"And you're not so bad for a man who is trying to kill me!" Yanopp replied.

"Sorry." Garzia then replied, and send another fist straight at Yanopp.

"WARGH!" Yanopp shouted as she stepped aside, and now wide-eyed looked at the hole in the floor left by the fist.

"Can't we just talk this out and come to a sort of agreement?" Yanopp asked hopefully.

"Sorry no, Ramon told me to either kill you, or beat you unconscious so we can use it in the stone chamber. Other-wise I'll be the one to go there. So well, rather you than me." Garzia stated.

"Okay that we don't entirely agree on.. so erhm.. toodles!" Yanopp shouted, and ran in the opposite direction from where Elly, Ryu and Julian had run to, and Garzia sighed, before he ran after her.

"Come on! It'll be a quick death I promise!" Garzia shouted after her.

Left back was Alejandro, drumming his fingers on the floor, as he exhaled. Then his eyes fell on the splintered door and his eye-brow rose.. before he rolled around to his stomach, and grabbed the floor with his hand, to pull himself forwards towards the door, biting together.


Damon frowned as he sat in a shadow, holding his strings, then he jumped out, and Xander turned around, lifting his hand, to make a wall fall in, then another one, before suddenly, his arm was stopped by some-thing. Xander blinked.. "What in?" he asked.

"You think merely dodging is all I have done?" Damon asked as he stepped forward, pushing up his glasses. "You control this building, as were you a puppet master. But you don't control me, and you can't feel my strings." He stated. "look around you, what do you see?" he asked.

Xander blinked, as he looked around, and suddenly realised, there were small shines every-where, like the shine from a spiderweb you could barely see, and then it was apparent.. it was a giant spiderweb of complicated strings, every-where.

"You are now trapped." Damon stated. "You need your hands to fight, and you are not strong physically, not quick enough, to avoid this." He stated, as he pulled his hand, and suddenly, all the many strings tightened around Xander, so he was suspended in mid air, his arms and hands tied close to his body, as well as his legs.

And Xander smiled lightly as he bowed his head. "I admit defeat, you won this duel." He stated.

And Damon nodded as he let go of the strings, which merely left them where they were, and left Xander hanging and tied up. "Which way to the secret weapon?" he asked.

"The basement." Xander replied. "There is fighting going on there, so I suppose you just have to follow the noise."

And Damon nodded slightly, as he turned around, walking slowly away.


"Ryu." Elly gasped for air, as she laid against the wall. "We can't win like this! He dodges any attack he sees! He's beating us."

"I know." Ryu breathed. "If there only was a way, so he wouldn't see us attack."

That made Elly blink. "Wait a minute.. RYU!" she exclaimed. "You're a genius!" she stated.

Ryu blinked as she looked at Elly.

"urhm.. how do you feel about fighting in darkness?" Elly asked Ryu in a whisper. "I mean.. I read that fishmen and fishwoman, can life in deep sea where it's absolutely dark, and be just fine."

"I do not know about that, I have never been to deep sea." Ryu replied. "But it is worth a try." She stated.

And Elly nodded.

"So what are you whispering on about now?" Julian asked in a smirk, holding his knife over his shoulder.

And Elly swallowed as she stood up with Ryu. "Are you ready?" she asked Ryu, and Ryu nodded.

"DARKNESS!" Elly shouted, as she reached out her hands, and a dark fog started to emergy.

"Huh?" Julian blinked. "What the?"

Soon the dark reached their torsos, then their heads, then the entire room.

It was beyond dark, it was pitch black, no one could see any-thing.

"WHAT!?" Julian shouted. "Don't do that! COME OUT! COME OUT WHERE I CAN SEE YOU! YOU FILFLTHY LITTLE GIRLS!" he shouted, as suddenly a punch sounded, then a crack, then a long series of noises.

"Erhmm." Elly blinked. "What's…. happening?" she asked, before one last crash sounded.

"Apparently I can navigate just fine in Darkness." Ryus voice sounded, and Elly lowered her hands, to make the dark vanish, and reveal, a completely beat up Julian laying on the floor, out cold.

Ryu giving his head one last little kick.

And Elly blinked. "Oh my god!" she exclaimed, holding her hands towards her mouth.

Ryu blinked looking up.

"We.. we did it!" Elly exclaimed. "just the two of us! We defeated an enemy pirate! I've never done any-thing like that before! WE DID IT!" she shouted, then gave Ryu a great hug as she smiled. And Ryu smiled likely.

"Hai." Ryu told. "And we could only do it together." She stated, making Elly smile.


"Come out, come out." Garzia invited as he walked around in the crumbling hall-way. "We can might as well just get over with this you know."

Yanopp was silent, as she sat above in the shadow on the ledge, looking at him. Then, she lifted her arm with the cross-bow.. and fired.

The bullet hit the wall, behind Garzia, and immediately he turned around and hit that wall, making it grumble together, then he frowned annoyed.

Yanopp swallowed, as she put up the cross-bow, and made another shot, to Garzias left, making him punch that wall. To hiss annoyed an out of patient. "I'm getting tired of this." He stated.

Then, Yanopp jumped down, to stand on the wall opposite the one that Garzia had been punching holes in.

"you know maybe Alejandro had some-thing, you're pretty stupid." Yanopp stated.

Surprised Garzia turned around, and looked at her with squinted eyes, and then lifted his fist, to hammer it down and destroy that wall.

Yanopp how-ever jumped aside, and made several summersaults, towards the way they had come from, before she stood up, ready with her cross-bow. "Don't move!" she warned.

"Or else what?" Garzia asked.

"Look around you!" Yanopp exclaimed. "This is not a ford, it's a ruin!" she stated. "It's falling together over us as we stand, and you big fellor.. you just destroyed the support pillars of this hall-way." She stated.

Garzias eyes widened. "What?" he asked.

"One blast, with this special explosive bullet.. And the entire thing should fall apart." Yanopp stated. "So don't move, or I'll do it!" she stated.

Wide-eyed Garzia looked at her, and then he lifted his arm as he yelled.

Yanopp how-ever, did as she promised, and fired her bullet, which landed straight on Garzias face, and exploided.

Coughing Garzia stood back, as he waved away the smoke, then looked up, looked at Yanopp as he smirked. "HAH!" he grinned. "Your plan failed."

Yanopp how-ever, looked up. "Urhm.." she stated.

And Garzia as well looked up, only to wide-eyed witness as several stones, fell down on him, and then the entire ceiling.

Yanopp turned away as she covered her eyes from the dust, and first, as the last little stone had fallen, did she dare to look back, and saw Garzias hand, being the only thing visible in all of the rubble that had now covered the hall-way.

Swallowing, Yanopp tried to poke to the hand with her finger.. nothing happened.. then she poked again. And a big grin appeared on her face. "YAHOOO!" Yanop shouted as she jumped up. "I DID IT! DAD! I BEAT A STRONG PIRATE!" she yelled. "ELLY! ORION! DAMON! ALSO YOU ASSHOLE ALEJANDRO! EVERY-BODY!" she shouted. "I DID IT!" she cried as she triumphantly stretched her arms into the air.


AN; I sincerely apologies for such lousy fight-scenes… I SUCK At writing fight-scenes, especially original ones.

Writing fight scenes isn't easy! Fight scenes are meant to be seen, like in a comic or manga or telly show.. describing them in written word.. eh..

I'm sure other people out there are really good at it, but I am not one of them.. I honestly get much more enjoyment of just writing character development and jokes… love writing funny stuff X)
