Rukia walked though the tall grass of the field just outside of a small village. She dusted off her light blue dress as she made her way into a clearing. "It would seem as though I was indeed able to train there, I haven't yet been able to re-attain my Death God powers they their fullest." She looked at the palm of her hand and thought back to the grueling training she put herself though just the day before she came across the village. Blue fire ball after Blue Crash, her hands were badly burned after that training. It would seem that not even using her demon arts over and over, regaining her Death God powers would not be an easy task. The burns were no longer an issue since she had received healing before and after her training, but there was still the fact that the training almost seemed pointless.
Near by she heard the grass rustle and leaped back a bit. Out from the grass jumped a small ground squirrel, nothing of threat value. However, the squirrel fled quickly as a loud roar came from over head. A large red dragon flew above Rukia. She aimed her palm upward and chanted a small spell then yelled, "Destructive Art 33: Blue Crash!" It would appear the attack would make it's target, but there was interference. A shadowed figure jumped from the Dragon and sliced its blade down sending a series of red fireballs raining down on Rukia. She was able to dodge all the fireballs and hide in the grass as the shadowed character landed and looked towards the grass that Rukia fled too.
It was a tall man with messed brown hair that fell every which way. His eye's were eyes that had seen many battles in the past. He glared at the grass and let go a low grunt. The Dragon over head hissed, "In the grass Caim, she hides in the grass."
Rukia was shocked at the dragon words and went to leap back when Caim jumped foreword without warning. His sword glowed bright red as he slashed downward sending a fireball in Rukia's direction. She dove to the side to avoid a direct hit but her left arm was caught by the fireball burning it badly. She stood up and looked over her shoulder to the village behind her then back to her enemy. She shouted, "What about the village? Do you care for the people there? If we must fight, let us take it away from here, so that we do not involve anyone else in this battle!"
Caim nodded his head and turned away from Rukia. The Dragon over head spoke once more, "He says follow him and then you shall fight."
Rukia nodded and followed Caim away from the village. She was glad that the villagers were not involved. Even if they were just NPC's, they helped her none the less.
After walking for a short while Caim halted. The area around them was flourishing with tall grass and small bushes. The area was perfect the stealth fighting. Something Rukia would need, seeing as her hand to hand skills were not up to par with other players.
The Dragon spoke once more, "This is as far as you shall go, now fight!"
Rukia looked up at the Dragon, thinking that it was going to attack her. However, it was Caim that came on the assault. Rukia was once more caught off guard as Caim swung his sword foreword, catching Rukia's left shoulder. Now with her left arm almost useless Rukia leaped backwards and seemed to disappear. She appeared behind a bush and took the moment to catch her breath. She was using up most of her energy just trying to avoid attacks. Rukia leaned back, ready to jump towards another bush when Caim heard the slightest sound and swung his sword in the direction that Rukia was hiding. Seeing as she had no time to run she lifted up both hands and caught Caim's blade and held it there. Caim was in shock of the maneuver and withdrew his blade and jumped back. It would appear that rukia was now starting to get her second wind. She took Caim's shocked moment and leaped towards him with a swift knee. Caim not expecting such a swift attack coming right after the counter did not have enough time to evade and took the blow head on and was sent flying backwards. He landed on the ground with a great thud and lied there for a few moments. Rukia, still on the attack, leaped into the air and aimed a downward kick towards Caim's fallen body. Caim saw this coming and raised his sword to block the kick. Rukia took minimum damage from the block, but lost her momentum. Caim got to his feet and changed towards her and swung his sword foreword slow, so to make his enemy dodge the attack. Rukia took the bait and dodged up. Caim saw this movement and slashed his sword up catching Rukia across the stomach. The slash dug deep and sent Rukia flying back. She landed on the ground, and coughed up blood. Caim stood there, watching to see if his opponent would rise again.
Rukia clenched her fist and dug her nails into the dirt. She coughed again, sending more blood splattering over the ground. "I won't lose, not yet…so don't look at me with those eyes…" Rukia got herself to one knee and stayed there, catching her breath. Caim took this opportunity to rush Rukia once more. Rukia raised her eyes up only to see a barrage of fireball come flying towards her. She took a great amount of damage and was flung away from Caim. However, once again she got up, this time to her feet. Caim once more came on the attack. Rukia seemed to be whispering since she had gotten to her feet.
Just as Caim got in front of her she raised her palm and yelled, "Destructive Art 4:White Lightning!" Bolts of lighting circled around her wrist as chain upon chain of lightning connected with Caim's body. His sword acted as a lightning rod, so she didn't even have to aim. After a few moments the blots ceased to flow and Rukia dropped her arm. Caim fell to his knees with his head lowered. It would seem that Rukia had won.
The Dragon over head hissed, "Caim, no need in playing possum with one that is spent of her energy." Caim, then without warning thrust his sword foreword towards Rukia.
Rukia grinned as she caught the blade with her hands and twisted her wrist, flipping Caim. His knees flew from the ground as his side landed hard on the ground. "It would seem your Dragon is wrong about something. I'm not spent, not yet." Rukia drew her leg back to kick Caim in the side with Caim's sword sung up sending a single fireball into Rukia's already injured stomach. She coughed up more blood and crumbled to the ground. Caim lifted up his blade and sent it slashing across Rukia's left arm once more.
The Dragon hissed over head, "Just end her Caim, put her out of her misery." Caim stepped back and swung his sword up past his right shoulder. It glowed a bright red as he swung it foreword, sending a great fireball blasting into Rukia's limp body, incinerating her completely. The Dragon hissed once more, "Must you always be so cruel to your opponent?" Caim just leaped up and onto the Dragon and flew off towards the village from before to get his wounds tended too.
