Blade to blade.

Spark to spark.

It's what drew him the fight, the victory kept him there.

The wind howled around them, not of it's own accord but because of their speed.

Kyo smiled, his canines showing and crimson eyes flashing.

Kyoushirou stared blankly, his eyes void of any emotion.

Blood for blood.

Eye for eye.

Tooth for tooth.

There was no guaranteed win that they could see.

Pain and loss.

Suffering and strength.

The cuts were numerous on both their bodies but still they danced, no winner was clear, no loser was giving up without a fight.

They picked up speed once more, causing dust to fly around them.

The sky grew dark and light through various attacks until all went so bright that no one could see a thing.

Win for loss.

Loss for win.

No set victory unless you fight for it.
