[BATFEJ:SA] ROOKIE ROUND 1: FIGHT 7; Shokyo Sakusei VS Asher von Dietrich

She evaded -- again. This was beginning to get frustrating for Asher, who likewise distanced himself from Sho and took up a defensive posture. Attacking rapidly clearly wasn't getting him too far, so maybe he needed to try a more defensive posture? He held his sword tightly, waiting for her to make a move.

"Why?" he echoed, "I was born into it, initially. My father was a high-ranking member of the Order. I do my best to serve our Creator while following in my father's footsteps.. I want to be the kind of Knight that he was.

And how well would he be serving his father if he lost there? No.. That wasn't an option.

"I see. Well cowardice isn't going to get you anywhere in this fight,"she said as she motioned to him as if telling him to come over to her. Suddenly, the ground beneath him would start to shift and would quickly drag him over to her unless he made some move to get away.

"Cowardice? That word isn't in the vocabulary of a true Knight of the Grand Cross."

Suddenly, he felt the earth beneath him shift. It tottered him for a moment before he caught his balance, only to realize that the ground itself was actually moving him toward Sho. He was jarred for a moment, but then quickly calmed himself -- if he played his cards right, this was his opportunity to get the drop on her by bringing his shield out; something she hadn't seen yet in this battle.

He dropped his sword arm down to his side, and lifted his left hand up in front of his face, fist clenched tightly. Using the momentum of the moving ground, he took a strong leap from the shifting earth toward Sho.

"Volligvetrauen!!"

At his command, the chain-link bracelet glowed even brighter, expanding into a golden shield bearing an intricate pattern of wings on its front, a blue gemstone set in the center. He careened forward toward her, aiming to strike her head-on with the shield, following up with a powerful vertical slash down at her left shoulder should she fall off-balance.

Sho grinned. Her foe had fallen into her trap. She was expecting him to be a frontal attacker. Most knights were. That would be his downfall. She jumped back, avoiding the shield but do to the sword's reach, it cut her on the shoulder slightly. "Dang it,"she said before the ground shook once, like there was an explosion far below. The entire ground beneath them shook like a car hitting a speed bump and then a thick dust cloud filled the air. Sho quickly covered her nose and mouth with her ribbon so as not to get a mouth or nose full of dirt.

Asher grinned as he felt his blade cut her shoulder. Perhaps finally bringing out his shield had given him a bit of a leg up on her after all. He prepared a rapid-follow up strike, but his plans were cut short when a massive cloud of dirt and dust was launched up around him. Coughing violently, he shut his eyes tightly to keep them from being blasted with dirt.

It wouldn't hurt him, particularly, but that probably wasn't her goal... Rather, to disorient him and open him up for an attack. The rumbling of the ground caused him to stagger back, and he held his shield out in front of himself as best he could.

Dammit... This ground manipulation power is getting old!"

However, her plan was not to hide her attacks in the dust. Her attack was the dust. She used her foe's coughs to find his location and once she knew where he was, she imagined the very dust turning into a solid form around her foe. The dust would solidify on and around Asher all at once. Going from a rather thick soup (or chowder which is thicker) like consistency to becoming absolutely solid. The air had become a coffin.

As he moved, Asher could feel his movement becoming more difficult. That dust around him was starting to change texture... Was it hardening around him?? In a panic he began to move as quickly as he could out of the cloud, even as the dirt was beginning to cake and harden around him. As he cleared the cloud, he could feel his body becoming increasingly sluggish. His left arm in particular, carrying his shield, had been solidified to the point of being barely mobile at all.

Damn... How am I supposed to get this stuff off of me?! I can barely move my arm...

His shield was stuck, and his legs were feeling rigid, but at least he still had his sword arm -- he gritted his teeth and began swinging the blade at his own body, cracking the solidified ground enough to at least allow his joints to move, if slowly. He cut his losses and dropped his shield, covered as it was with the hardened ground, and chose once more to rely solely on his blade.

If this was going to end in anything but a humiliating defeat, he would have to act quickly. He began advancing toward her, though in a somewhat rigid fashion, blade extended high over head as he chanted under his breath.

"The light of the Divine shall pierce even the darkest heart..."

He drew his sword back and swung it, as if he were using his sword beam technique; his hope was that she would move to dodge it, and he could then extend his fingers and unleash his true attack, another light beam attack aimed for her torso.

Sho was irritated that her earth coffin attack had failed. She transformed her crystal twin swords into a large shield and prepared to try and block the energy attack, but was surprised as the shield lit up from a beam of holy light hitting it. The light scattered and cut down several trees. Sho was now smiling. She held the shield on her arm as she took her ribbon off her mouth and put it back in her hair and walked over to one of the fallen trees that now lay in the arena. She touched it and could tell it had been killed. The tree was dead, which meant it was now Sho's to control. But Asher wouldn't know that.

She reflected his attack yet again, causing some impressive collateral damage as the beams scattered around the battlefield. This forest wasn't going to look so hot by the time they were done...

And then he noticed that Sho had gone over to check out one of the trees. If she was planning on making that turn into some other kind of impaling spike, Asher wasn't going to give her the chance. Breaking into a run at her, he held his sword tightly in his right hand and charged at her, delivering a rapid series of quick thrusts with the tip of the blade aimed for her arms and midsection.

"Not this time!!"

Sho brought her shield up this time and blocked the jabs. "'Not this time' what? You really think just running at me it going to stop me?'she asked laughing. Problem was, she was running out of options. She needed to end this fight quickly. She quickly assessed her options. She had access to would and all of the earthen elements at this time. She also had cloth......but she'd rather not use a trick like that in public. She'd need to wait for him to leave an opening.

The battle was getting down to its last legs. Soon, one or the other would have to take control of the fight and win it. For Asher's part, he was about to make his final move. She had gotten her shield up to block his pierces, but if he could just get her shield out of the way, he might be able to hit her with one last strike that could put her down... Or at least do enough damage to make the judges award him the battle.

"Blessed is the sword which strikes in the name of the Almighty... For God shall crush all foes." He chanted once more in a whisper.

As he continued his pierces, he planted his foot on the ground and spun quickly, delivering a powerful kick to her shield, in an attempt to throw it off-balance. Immediately following the kick, without even looking to see if she was off-balance or not, he swung his sword violently downward, unleashing one last arc of holy energy straight for her. He didn't have time to stop and look -- if she was vulnerable, then he needed to hit immediately.

If this doesn't work... I"m in trouble.

Sho let her shield be knocked away, but as it happened, the ground beneath her quickly moved to follow the shield, letting her catch it. She watched as Asher swung his sword for one last mighty strike, but alas, she had moved. Sho then focused as hard as she could and the very ground that made the stadium started to lose consistency in reality till it vanished Except for the spot where she now stood. Unless Asher had wings, he would fall into the hole. And since now the power blocker would activate on her as well, he would be buried up to his neck in dirt as the erased ground reappeared at the cut off of her powers.

As he seemed to be doing fairly often in this fight, Asher let out a surprised cry as the ground beneath him dematerialized. He struggled to regain his senses and his orientation, but by the time he did, he was thoroughly stuck and immobilized in the ground. What couldn't this girl do? Well... That was probably to be expected of an older student."

"I guess that does it for us," he said, surprisingly calm for a man buried in the ground -- but at this point the fight would be called, so he knew he wasn't about to get punted in the face.

Now, all that was left was to wait for the verdict.

Sho saw that her ploy had succeeded and walked over to her buried foe. She sat down next to him and let out a sigh of exhaustion. "That was really hard. Unlike you, my power wears me out the more I use it and that took a whole lot out of me. If we had gone any longer, I probably would have passed out from exhaustion,"she said breathing heavily still.

Yansaki, your power says you need to be touching stuff in order for it to work. But otuchign the ground doesn't mean you're touching the ENTIRE STADIUM. Phasing the ENTIRE STADIUM into unsolid material is cheap and unfair and more importantly it's lame.

This round goes to Asher on the grounds that he played more fair and used his powers reasonably.
