The Dead Forest (Increased Orc activity due to skirmish)

[Cristopher Reinhart]

Noticing she was done with her meal Cris simply asked.

So what's your story?

It was a bit forward but it was the thing that intrigued him most. Everyone around the stadium had something about them in one or more ways. Maxi the shadow, Ryugi the dragon, himself, whatever the hell he was. Now Louve, a wolf and her master.  

[Xavior Bushido]

Teryn listened as the man talked. He could tell that by the way he described himself that there was something unusual about him. Demon? Dragon? He wasn't a human.

"Well now Ryudo Kazamaru. I am Teryn Lord of the Dread Isle and have slain whole armies only. And nothing you say strikes fear in my heart. I have never felt such an emotion and I rarely ever show emotion. You were lucky enough to see me angry. Normally, I am emotionless." he said in a soft yet deadly voice. He drew his mighty blade and touched he blade for a moment and then looked back at the man with a cold stare. He was ready for him.

He lowered his right arm to his side with his sword in hand and waited for him to respond.  

[Kanashimi Kurai]

'My story is a long one... it spans over many ages...' It was a round about way of saying that she didn't really want to talk about her past. She rose and moved to lay down next to him.  

[Cristopher Reinhart]

It wasn't hard to see that Louve was avoiding the subject, it was becoming a pattern betwen them. The question about what happened to him was also avoided when last they met. Just as she respected his wish he would hers, it was rude to pry after all.

Loosk like we both dislike digging up the past. Can't complain, atleast now we have something in common. Besides being wolves.

As she lay next to him he looked to her his eyes were a bit sad but tried to display kindness, his hand fell over her back. His fingers stroked her fur, he did hope she didn'tmind.

He lowered his right arm to his side with his sword in hand and waited for him to respond.

Are you really so afraid to come at me that you wait for ME to move? For one who has supposedly defeated armies...you are very dull and boring to me...

Ryudo yawned and then grinned again as he walked slowly towards his opponent, not more than 20 feet away from him...  

[Kanashimi Kurai]

Didn't mind was an understatement. Louve closed her eyes, enjoying the contact. It was soothing and it felt good. 'You are a wolf?'  

[Cristopher Reinhart]

I am. Among other things.

The last sentence was a bit more hushed and forced out. If Louve knew what he really was he feared her reaction. hell, he feared everyone's reaction. They showed in his eyes at times, they appeared like appariations behind him, they scared more than human beings. To tell the truth Cris was surrpised Louve hadn't sensed it yet, of course she may've just kept to herself. It was strange though, of how animalistic he'd become.

Mind telling where your master is?

Cris said trying to change the subject his body naturally moving so that his left arm was over Louve. His face on her back, and his right hand moving over her head. Maybe this was getting a bit too comfortable but cris so loved the company of other wolves.  

[Xavior Bushido]

Teryn smirked as he too stepped forwards. He walked to the man until he was ten feet away. "I'm afraid of no man. That includes you." he said as he cracked his neck with antisapation. He knew that this was going to be one hell of a fight and he couldn't wait. After the disappointing fight he had had with the other man. He needed a good battle and it looked like he was going to get it.

"Lets do this." he said with a smirk as he shot at the man with his blade at his side. But once he was five feet away he lept to the side and then at an angel right at the mans exposed side. He slash horozantally. Nothing special, he just wanted to test this mans skill.  

[Kanashimi Kurai]

'Tending to business of his own, I assume...' She smiled softly, if it could be called a smile. It looked more like she was baring her fangs.  

[Cristopher Reinhart]

So how is he your master louve? It's rare to see wolves with masters.

Cris continued to stroke her head and scratched lightly behind her ear, his eyes shut taking in the peaceful moment.  

[Kanashimi Kurai]

Louve's ears twitched lightly as her tongue lolled from her jaws. 'He's alright... as for being a slave... I'm a special case... and they are special circumnstances...'  

[Cristopher Reinhart]

Cris' head lifted of her slightly. A bit surprised and shocked he asked.

Slave? Louve you're a slave?

Something else they had in common though his was a little more complictaed.  

[Ryudo_Kazamaru]

Teryn smirked as he too stepped forwards. He walked to the man until he was ten feet away. "I'm afraid of no man. That includes you." he said as he cracked his neck with antisapation. He knew that this was going to be one hell of a fight and he couldn't wait. After the disappointing fight he had had with the other man. He needed a good battle and it looked like he was going to get it.

"Lets do this." he said with a smirk as he shot at the man with his blade at his side. But once he was five feet away he lept to the side and then at an angel right at the mans exposed side. He slash horozantally. Nothing special, he just wanted to test this mans skill.

Ryudo grinned as the man got closer and closer... Then, he turned away from the man, his back aimed at his charging opponent. Einlanzer pulsed and glowed with a wicked black and purple aura of energy as the man's sword got ever closer to Ryudo. But then as it seemed the sword would connect, Ryudo became transparent and Teryn's sword cut through nothing but Ryudo's see-through form. His opponent's momentum would already be carrying him onward and forwards, and Ryudo planned to use this...

As soon as he went transparent, the phased form of Einlanzer, still crackling with phased energy, swung towards the area in front of Ryudo. Now this would seemingly look like a useless attack, but Teryn's momentum and inertia carried his body ahead of the phased Ryudo, right where the attack would be. As Teryn's "Sword of Seals" moved past Ryudo's body, causing no harm to the Dark Warrior, Ryudo snapped back into the tangible realm, as did the energy that was wrapped around Einlanzer.

The sword hit the ground, and a 6 foot tall, 4 feet wide blast of dark purple energy screamed across the terrain towards Teryn at near 30 feet per seccond, and powered forward with enough power to punch a hole through a solid concrete wall with very little effort. Also, seeing as there was only about 5-6 feet in between Ryudo and his opponent, well, lets just say the attack would be damn near impossible to dodge or outrun at this distance. Teryn was in for a very painful surprise...  

[Kanashimi Kurai]

'In more ways than one... yes... I am a slave...' In truth, the circumnstances had become some what complicated since she had met Unsane. Then again, Unsane was helping her, so it wasn't so bad.  

[Xavior Bushido]

Teryn saw his blade pass through empty space amd smiled. "Not bad. "he said as his momentum kept his body moving. But he saw that his opponent was charging up for a powerful attack and began to formulate a plan in his head. He knew that whatever he did was going to have to be powerful yet quick.

As he turned around, he saw the giant energy blast screaming towards him and he knew there was no running. So he did the next best thing. He closed his eyes and drew in a bit of energy from the air around him. He then shifted his grip on his sword slightly and then slashed vertically as he jumped up into the air.

As he did so, and flash of green energy five feeet tall and two feet wide shot from his sword. He knew it wouldn't stop the attack, but that wasn't what he wanted anyways. What he wanted was to split theattack which is precisely what happened. This cause one half of the attack t fly right by him leaving him with only half of the attack to endure.

As it hit him, he felt a slight pain but he quickly shook it off. The attack had sent him back tweenty paces but the more room the better.

Teryn again closed his eyes but this time, he focused his energy into his blade. He drew energy from the tree and the air around him. And as he did so, his blade began to glow bright red. After a moment, he opened his eyes and swung his blade vertically until his blade crashed into the ground. This created a pillar of red energy seven feet tall and four feet wide. It tore towards Ryudo Kazamaru with amazing speed. It was a powerful attack that Teryn rarely got the pleasure of using, yet it still had tremendous speed.
