Azusa prowled around the hallways of Maikuni High School all alone. She was on the hunt for a very specific target, and she knew where she stayed after school. Sam Strahan. She was on the hunt for the girl who terrified her only days ago. Now she wanted revenge. It was the first time in a long time that Azusa was truly serious about killing another magical girl. Other times, she let them escape or she toyed around with them just to hear them scream. But this time, she wanted Sam dead. She was ready to get some blood on her claws. Azusa slinked through the hallways, climbing walls, and poking holes through the doors, on her way to the one place she knew Sam would be. The school roof. She emerged from the stairwell into the moonlight, where she saw her target. Sam was staring off into the distance, getting a view of the city. She heard Azusa's claws clinking against the stone roof, so she sent a stream of flames in Azusa's direction.
"Trying to get me with a sneak attack. Hmph. Cowardly." Sam chastised Azusa's decision. Azusa glared at Sam and hissed loudly, arching her back and flicking her tail back and forth as she quiety growled. Sam's hair lit ablaze as she reached into her hair and lit her fist ablaze with flames from her hair. She ran up to Azusa and tried a downward hook maneuver, before Azusa flat out disappeared. Sam looked around, trying to see where Azusa went. She heard the clinking of obsidian claws against the stone roof, and she shot a fireball in that direction. Azusa decloaked and blocked the attack with her claws before charging straight at Sam and clawing at her face. She connected, leaving a scar on Sam's nose before her claws glowed red and she slashed Sam's stomach, cutting deep gashes in it. Then she stood up and looked Sam in the eye as she raised her claws. Unfortunately for her, Sam was not amused and Azusa stood face to chest with her. Sam's head flames burned brighter than usual as she put her hand to Azusa's face and blasted her with a stream of flames, leaving her with an ugly second degree burn and sending her rolling to the edge of the roof. Azusa stood up and shook off some rocks before her claws glowed red again, this time extending by an inch. She dug her right hand into the roof, poking a hole in it before running around Sam and carving a hole in the roof, causing a small piece of the roof to fall from under Sam, who fell with the piece into the gymnasium, landing with a loud THUD. When the dust settled, Azusa leaped into the gym, sliding down the walls to slow her descent. Then she ran down the bleachers to the crater that Sam had created.
"You're finished, Sam. I'll add your face to my collection of severed heads." Azusa taunted her victim. But Sam was still alive, and her head flames burned so brightly that they were almost white. Sam stood up and her eyes glowed turquoise, and she walked straight up to Azusa.
"Azusa Miyazaki… you will never see the light of day again." Sam's voice sounded like two demonic voices speaking simultaneously. Her head flames grew taller, thanks to her levels of stress skyrocketing. Then, she was surrounded by blue flames, and then she raised her hand. Azusa recognized that she was going to be cooked if she didn't run soon. Sam's flames charged up, sounding like a jet engine before exploding like a hydrogen bomb, scorching the entire gym, leaving nothing but ashes in her wake. Azusa was nowhere to be seen, so Sam assumed she was among the piles of ash. Sam un-transformed and left the gym, walking away from the blue inferno she had created. Sam recognized that she was going to be a wanted criminal soon, so she briefly left town in the dark of night. But she would come back. Meanwhile, Azusa, heavily injured and covered in burn marks, found her way to the local hospital, for she too, would be out of action for awhile. The repercussions of this battle were massive, and it would be a long time before things went back to normal.
