Colour Bound Battle: Black And Blue
Black's POV
"EIGHT!", the crowd roared in enthusiasm, chilling my blood to their very cells as I stood as still as a brick, feeling the nice, calming breeze brush against my face head on. Under my feet, was a grey, circular plate that had a reflective surface that could rival against a mirror fit for a king.
"SEVEN!", the crowd screamed as they jumped up and down in pure excitement. They must REALLY want to see this fight. And why wouldn't they? Innocent verses someone with a deadly sniper riffle.
"SIX!", they screamed. My heart began beating terribly fast as I stared right at the girl with the blue hair. She looked friendly and very beautiful, but, just like me, looks WILL kill.
"FIVE!", They screamed once more, making me grunt in anger and anxiety as I gripped he charcoal coloured handle of my Black's Song with my right hand.
"FOUR!". Slowly, I lifted my blade up to my face, tilting it to the left to grant maximum protection of she were to shoot me at the face... But that would be against the rules tho... Wait...
"THREE!". She's not aiming for my head... I gulped, hoping that the sudden theory in my head would be as accurate as one of Yurei's shots.
"TWO!". I lowered my blade slightly, letting it shine in the glorious sun and covering a small percentage of my small chest. At the very least, it covered my heart, meaning that if she plans on shooting me in the chest, I won't get killed... Hopefully. Wait... My blade's reflecting the sun's light... Meaning...
"ONE!", they screamed with all their might, followed with horrifyingly loud screams of joy and excitement. Ok... I tilted my blade slightly, hoping that the light would shine at her face out of the millions of other places it could shine... I bent my knees slightly, pushing my right leg forwards as I charged up my lunge if all else fails...
"GOOOOOOOO!", Everyone on the stands screamed with all their might, echoing a good three times as they kept on cheering non stop...
I grit my teeth, bracing myself just as a huge, muffled explosion emitted from up ahead, causing my eyes to widen as I stood my ground, hoping that my plan worked... If her bullet hits me, then I've failed. If it doesn't then I've succeeded. My pupils contracted to tiny dots as I focused on the blue energy bullet that was in the shape of a tiny ball spiralling towards me with supersonic speed... And it was coming right for my head...
"Argh!", I grunted, quickly dropping to my knees with brute force, just watching the bullet pass my head with a frightening aura that blew my hair back as I cringed. Strangely, my knees didn't hurt but I didn't pay attention to anything but the fact that my opponent isn't hesitating to kill me right here, right now. "What... She's crazy!", I whispered loudly from under my breath, still in a state of shock from what had just happened... I dared not to look behind me, even after hearing the devastating, ear-crushing crumble of concrete from far behind. That's one powerful shot!
She was a good one hundred and sixty three meters away from me, meaning that she wouldn't have to predict-shoot me to land one right into my solid, corrupted skull that had sustained truck loads of damage from the past. My heart thumped like drums, crystal clear beads of sweat began to form on my forehead and my blood chilled for a sudden split second right when I heard some sort of mechanical clank and scrape... Then, a long, eerie echo of a metal rattling on the grey, concrete field... Oh shit!
Instantly, out of instinct, I rolled to the right with lightning speed, scraping my head slightly just as another metallic scrape sounded, echoing twice in the now silent battlefield. Argh! She's re-chambering the gun! If that was Sino, then I'd be dead by now... But a sniper's weakness is being confronted up close! I need to get in deeper without getting shot!
I grunted, feeling my heart bash against my chest as sat on my knees, holding my blade right in front of my face now in order to keep myself from getting killed cause that girl really wants to kill me! Quickly, I dove to the right again out of instinct, JUST hearing another explosion go off from up ahead. I rolled again, holding my blade horizontally to ensure that I don't accidentally stab myself as the bullet smashed right into where I was. I quickly stood up, making my jet black, long hair bounce a couple of times as a shockwave slapped me across the face. I turned to my left, suddenly attacked by fear and terror as the ground where stood not a second ago, looked like a small crater with white, piping hot steam rising up quickly like a blazing inferno.
Argh! Now's my chance! Quickly, clenched my teeth tightly, gripping the handle of my Black's Song with my right hand before letting loose of it with my left. Quickly, I turned forwards, taking a straight, intimidating stance as my life was now on the line. I'm going to have to start going in!
I readied myself, taking in a deep breath as the metallic noise of her dark blue sniper riffle filled the air along with the dreadful, eerie noise of the bullet case rattling against the hard, grey, concrete ground...
Bingo! As fast as possible, I dashed forwards with the best of my abilities, holding my blade in front of my face in a horizontal manner as the wind whistled and rushed past me like a barrage of microscopic bullets that stung my eyes like acid and burnt my nostrils like pepper. My footsteps were loud and this time, I had no reason to hold back. Now that I'm infused with magic, I'm able to do ridiculous things! Heck, even without it, I could still do such things! Let's do this!
One, final mechanical clank was made, making me close my eyes as my blood began to cool down slowly. With haste, I opened my eyes, seeing the bullet not three meters away from my face... A smile crept up to my face as time seemed to slow down to the point of freezing.
"I'm not that easy to shoot!", I exclaimed, my left, light blue eye now glowing brightly as I suddenly sliced the bullet clean from the air vertically, causing it to split into two separate pieces that passed either side of me like raging torpedoes, emitting one hell of a loud, supersonic boom that sounded a second after the silent slice. Time resumed back to normal and I kept on running straight towards her with full speed, quickly closing the gap in between us as there was now a mere a hundred meters left.
"Impossible!", she exclaimed in shock, quickly pulling back at the dark blue handle to the right of her gun, emitting the metallic clank as a bullet rattled on the ground once again. "Eat this!".
She pushed the handle back and immediately shot at me again, making my eyes widen slightly as I thought thoroughly about my plan. With haste, I quickly stepped to the right and performed a spin, just watching the bullet fly by my head with a warm smile plastered across my face and continued to run straight at her. She gasped, this time, she re-chambered her sniper in one, single motion, emitting a cluster of noises that made me lick the back of my sharp, feral-like tooth that was located to the right of my upper jaw, a tooth away from my two middle teeth.
Again, another explosion-like sound erupt from her sniper riffle, causing me to this time, drop down to my butt as I skidded across the floor, somehow unable to feel the burning pain... That's right... This clothing is like armour! Now I understand why I have to wear these embarrassing socks! The bullet whizzed by my head by a mere inch, making me realise that the close I get, the more closer her shots will be... Ok. I think I know what to do!
"You will not survive!", She exclaimed at the top of her lungs, causing me to grit my teeth as I knew what she meant. But at the same time, I didn't.
Right now, I was only a good seventeen meters away from her, meaning that she had absolutely no time at all to re-chamber her weapon. As I thought, she quickly placed her gun behind her, looking like she was going to pull something else to take me on. Not while I'm around! I smiled warmly, blinking once as I held my blade in front of my face before lunging straight for her, leaving the ground by a few inches... This is the end!...
"Who are you and how'd you dodge my bullets?", she asked me with edge in her innocent, sweet voice that made me blink blankly in confusement before suddenly, from out of the blue, just as my blade was going to make contact with her body, a light blue blade blocked my attack...
I grunted, feeling her put pressure against it which caused me to blast backwards a good meter, skidding across the ground on my knees before I got back up and lunged at her once again, sending one hell of a horizontal slash that went from right to left. She took a step back from it, grunting slightly before she sent an uppercut to me.
In an instant, I quickly held my blade in front of me with my right hand, countering her attack before suddenly, she sent a punch to my face with her free, left hand. I took it, knowing that it's better than getting sliced and diced into minced meat anyday. She put a lot of power into it, lunging forwards as I looked to my right due to her forceful punch. Dammit! It hurt like a thousand syringes being injected into my very face all at once as my vision blackened a good three times before my nose started to burn internally as blood left from my slightly gapped mouth.
Without an second to loose, she quickly reeled her left arm back to her side and immediately sent a horizontal slice aiming for my upper chest. My eyes widened, my instinctive mind suddenly forced my body to jump back from out of the blue as I quickly looked forwards to see and feel her light blue katana graze my stomach, cutting deep past the tissue and flesh as my insides felt like they could just hurl out like a bucket of ice.
The pain was excruciating, but I endured it and smiled gently, not wanting to smile too much less I want to look like a masochist or a sadist. Blood fled from my large wound like a fountain, drenching my black miniskirt. I landed back on my feet with a grunt of agony, skidding across the ground a brief two meters before slumping forwards slightly, holding my left hand on my stomach in hopes to stop the bleeding...
"You didn't answer my question. Who are you and how'd you dodge my bullets?", she asked in a commanding tone that didn't suit her tone of voice.
I coughed out some blood, swallowing a mouthful before opening my bloodied mouth to say something.
"Black Melody... And why are you trying to kill me?", I asked innocently, still smiling slightly before she suddenly launched herself right at me, making me grunt as I readied myself, pulling my left hand away from my stomach and clutched the bottom half of my handle, holding my Black's Song in front of my stomach as the blade's tip reached as far as my head. Suddenly, she did something unimaginable. She bent down to her knees, touching the ground with her left hand before springing up a good six meters into the air, pulling out her sniper riffle from behind her back with her lone left hand. Shit!
I grunted and groaned, feeling my life slowly fade away from me as I was loosing too much blood from the wound she gave to me. Argh! I won't lose! She held the re-chambering handle with her left hand and pushed the gun forwards with force, emitting that dreadful, mechanical clank as a golden bullet case fell from high above...
"Die!", she screamed, pulling the trigger right at me as I grit my teeth, finally deciding to use a special something...
Boom! Her gun went off as a white steam blew from the barrel of her dark blue sniper that closely resembled an L96A1 from this distance... The bullet spiralled right at me, ravaging past the air as it was aimed directly for my skull...
I smiled warmly now, still watching the bullet as it was now a mere three meters away... With everything I have, I sent a vertical slice with my blade, connecting with the bullet nicely as I began to channel my magic through my right hand and into my Black's Song, black lines began to form around my right hand which burnt my skin and boiled my blood, injecting chemicals into my body...
"Impossible! From his distance it's impossible to even think before the bullet hits!", she exclaimed, swooping down at me with all her might and spun rapidly, making her dangerous, blade-infested blue skirt rise and resemble a saw blade.
"Why are trying to kill me?!", I exclaimed with anger, feeling some sort of adrenaline rush throughout my entire body, causing my eyes to slightly widen in the sheer amount of energy and power, urging to be used.
"Because you're dangerous!", she exclaimed, making contact with my blade as I held it in front of me with both my hands vertically, blocking off her furious spinning attack that grind against my blade like no tomorrow. The sheer, ear-bursting, metallic scraping noise strained my ears dearly, causing them to twitch vigorously as I forced them to stay put, less I want everyone in the damn school to find out what race I'm from... Or worse, WHO I am.
"I'm dangerous?! You're the one trying to kill me!", I exclaimed with edge, pushing my blade forwards with tremendous force, breaking through her defensive blades that were attached to her blue dress and slashed at her stomach slightly vertically. She grunted in pain, gasping slightly and loudly as she stumbled backwards in agony and out of desperation. "Gah! Sorry!", I apologised, hoping to win with words and not violence but that reality is no other than a dream...
"Sorry?! Why are you saying that in a fight?", she exclaimed, looking down at her torn, bloodied dress with what looked like teary eyes. "Shut it! You're dangerous and you deserve to die!".
What's wrong with her?! I grunted, watching her lunge straight at me, dropping her sniper riffle from her left hand as the tapping of her close footsteps filled the air along with the stiff, eerie silence of the crowd and the grey, concrete arena that felt no better than a cage... The air was cold, her eyes burnt a light blue and her face looked like on the verge to tears... I kept my smile, keeping my composure to the best of my abilities as I jumped back, straining my torn stomach painfully as she sent a devastating horizontal slash that nearly sliced me into two separate pieces. Argh! White will kill me if that happens to me!
Quickly, I jumped forwards, sending a stab, only did she sidestep it to the left and sent an immediate vertical slice that I dodged by stepping to the right, watching it just pass my head in a terrifying manner. I could of sworn that my life flashed before my eyes! Argh! Quickly, she spun around and performed an E=M move on me, aiming for my head. As fast as I could, I fell down to my knees, touching the cold, concrete ground with my left hand as her blade barely missed my head by a mere millimetre.
"What?", she said in pure, utter shock to my sudden dodge. I smiled warmly, staring up at her eyes with my two, multicoloured ones before quickly swiping her legs clean with my right, causing her to gasp as she lost her immediate footing. "Ah!".
As fast as I could, I stood up, hearing a thud and a slap as she collapsed to the ground with her blade now out of her possession, a good three meters away from her head to the right. Her light blue hair was spread out all over the place, resembling a a spiky hedgehog as her eyes widened in pure shock and fear, staring up at me with her light blue eyes.
I released the handle of my blade with my left hand, letting it reel back to my left side as I slowly raised my right hand along with my blade. She gasped, shifting backwards in pure shock and fear as a small pool of blood began to form from under her due to the wound I gave to her. She must've stretched it when she tried to behead me. She was completely frightened, looking up at me with teary eyes that made me feel bad for what I had done...
My blade disappeared without a trace, turning into black, flaky particles that disintegrated into nothing but the very thin air... A magic that only I can perform. I sent it to my hell of my creation so that it can never get lost whatsoever...
"H...how'd you... Do all of that? You dodged my bullets and even sliced them. You even blocked the blades on my skirt!", she exclaimed with widened, petrified eyes as she lay from underneath me, looking as frightened as a kitten. She was shivering, not from the cold but from me...
"It's a long story. You haven't answered my question", I said casually, kneeling down to her level, as my clothes rustled slightly. The black shirt I wore was torn from the waist and luckily wasn't to the point where my OTHER places would become exposed. She gasped again, a crystal clear, salty tear trickled down her right eye as she stared up at me, completely frightened. "Why are you trying to kill me?", I asked with a smile.
"Because... Y...you're dangerous... You're going to kill me... And how c...can you smile in a fight?", she asked, still trembling on the cold, smooth, concrete ground.
I sighed in slight annoyance. "Why would I kill you? You've done absolutely nothing to me except for the fact that you've sliced my stomach open and tried to lodge a bullet through my skull", I said innocently as some blood trickled from out of my mouth from the right.
"But... When you held that blade on your chest, it looked like you wanted... to kill me...", She said innocently. I chuckled, slowly reaching out my right hand to her face, before suddenly I jolted forwards as an ear-cringing, soul tearing rip emitted from right behind me... I couldn't move, nor could I say anything... What? "Huh?", She said in pure shock as my mouth gapped slightly, more crimsons dripping from my mouth like a fountain as I continued to look at her innocent, frightened face... What's going on? "Oh no!", She yelled, sounding distant and muffled as my vision began to wobble from side to side...
Slowly, I looked down at myself to find something unimaginable sticking right out of my torn, blood coated abdomen... Right there, from what I was able to make out with my disoriented eyes, was a large, light blue weapon... My spine was completely destroyed yet I still knelt down, in shock of what had just happened to me... Argh...
"D...Did you...", I coughed out blood, nearly falling over to the right as she stared at me with a frightened face.
"Black!? I...I didn't mean to!", She said, sounding like an echo... my eyes narrowed. I was loosing too much blood... Argh... I blanked out for a good three seconds, opening my eyes to find myself on the lifeless ground, feeling nothing but anxiety... My heart was beating too fast. Way too fast... Thump, thump, thump, thump, Thump, Thump, THUmp, THUMp, THUMP... Flatline...
Everything went black again... And the gasps of the crowds were the last thing I heard...

Colour Plane
Her nails dug deep into my hand as she took it with a concerned, curious face. Tho I didn't mind. I just smiled at the innocent, lonely girl who needed a friend. I blinked, tilting my head to the right, making my long, black hair bounce once. She finally smiled at me, making my heart skip a beat to how beautiful she looked...
"This is it", I thought. "Now I can help her out with anything she needs"...
