A/N: Yes, I am a dude, so having the water spilled on Tom's nuts was a bit scarring for me -__- but then again, girls like

things like that to happen to guys.... so maybe girls will read my fanfic too? and not just Mystrana ;p

Chapter 4: Clash

Tom just stood there, his longsword in hand while Dart transformed into the Divine Dragoon. Even though Dart had an

amazing edge over Tom, he wasn't gonna give in just because he was less experienced.

"What now Mr. Ima Big Divine Dragoon???" Tom taunted Dart, hoo boy did he have a lot to learn.

"Now you get your ass handed to you," Dart replied "unless you want to give up now, and not humiliate yourself in

front of a girl." A wide grin spread across Darts face as Tom blushed.

"Well, let's just see who's ass gets handed to who shall we?" Tom retorted cockily. Dart gestured towards the door,

and they both walked outside, and into the nearby forest.

"Ok, here's the rules." Dart explained "We fight in 2 divisions. First is in the air, second is on the ground.

No low blows, and no magic to the face. Mishi will be the ref." Dart pointed to Mishi "Do you think you can do that Mishi?"

Dart asked. Mishi just nodded. "Ok then, when we get ready, you shout fight to get us going." And the two took off into the

air. Dart didn't have a weapon per ce, instead he had his cannon arm. His other arm had a gigantic shield inlayed. He

cracked his neck to taunt Tom. Tom could care less if he cracked his neck. If anyone was gonna get humiliated in front of

his beautiful fire warrior, it sure as hell wasn't gonna be him.

"FIGHT!" Mishi shouted, and the fight commenced. Tom charged. One of the perks about the Dark Dragoon was it's

increased agility, and Dart knew this. His Divine Dragoon Armor was a lot bulkier and he would need to go to the full extent

of his skills in order to keep Tom from landing a hit, because as he knew well, if he got hit once it would be followed by

more. Dart put up his shield, and Tom's sword was reflected. Tom quickly spun around and feinted an attack to Dart's head.

Dart saw the blade shift directions, but he couldn't move his shield fast enough to parry his sword, so instead, he shot a

cannon blast in the the strong part of Tom's armor.

*****

Tom had been shot in the chest, knocking him back and winding him. He floated there, doubled over, trying to catch

his breath. When his breath returned, he cocked his head up, and charged with renewed vigor. He put one hand over the other

in front of him.

"Death Dimension!" Tom cast his first magic at Dart, who was engulfed in darkness. Tom plowed through after his

oponent. He saw him trying to get his bearings straigt, in the middle of the void of darkness.

"Ready to give up Dart?" Tom shouted and moved, so as to not let Dart see him.

"Never, no way I'm gonna lose to a little kid like you!" Tom slipped up behind Dart, and slowly placed his blade

around the front of his head, placing it right in front of his jugular. Dart gulped. "I concede" As Dart spoke, the

Darkness dissolved. The two of them landed.

"Round one goes to Tom" As Dart told Mishi, Tom was jumping around, not believing he just beat Dart.

*****

Mishi was surprised when she learned that Tom had defeated Dart. But then again, Dart's armor was a lunker, and Tom's

looked as though it were very light. She watched as they both took their positions across from each other on the field.

"FIGHT!" She shouted again. This time, Dart took to the offensive first. He charged as fast as his armor allowed.

He lunged, thrusting his shield arm at Tom, who dodged and slashed down at Dart's chest. Dart shifted his feet, and swung

his arm up, to knock the sword out of Tom's hand, and ensure his victory. But Tom's grip held fast, and all that happened

was that Tom was flung up and away. Dart swung his shield, clipping Tom's legs, causing his feet to slip from underneath him.

Tom was on his back in 2 seconds flat. Dart lifted up his boot, and stepped on Tom's chest.

"Ready to give up yet?" Dart asked Tom with a broad smile on his face. And just as he looked up, Tom's foot swept

under Dart's free foot, causing Dart to trip and fall down with a thud next to Tom. And despite all of their attempts,

neither of the two competitors could stand again.

"It's a tie." Mishi declared. "Neither of you can move, and if you keep fighting like this, one of you is gonna end

up getting severely hurt." With a bright flash of Purple and Silver, both of their armor disappeared, and the two guys

slowly returned to their feet.
