[1 vs 1] RED RED red red? RED! [ Savior vs Jericho ]

[Rown]

Savior was, well, being Savior. She'd returned home from her weird little ritual just in time for some weird holidays to start and, feeling stronger and gifted with a new look (time passed quickly when you're hunting down your own kind), the Marrowstripe was ready to have some fun.

Or she would have fun if she hadn't gotten lost right off the bat trying to find her way around. None of the locations were familiar and, thanks to weather and time, her scent was all but gone on everything. Not really a huge loss since she didn't need to know, but at the very least she managed to get herself back to the gym. The Gym was an awesome place that Savior probably should have known quite well.

Too bad she had no idea about any of it, or the people inside. Derp.  

[Blade Kuroda]

Jericho was already inside the gym, pacing about like a restless animal. There weren't really any places where he could truly get some peace and quiet, and it was driving him crazy. To make matters worst, he was starting to feel strangely around others. In a way different than how he's been the past week or so. Was this affliction of his getting worse?

Hearing someone come in, his gaze shot over to see who it was. It was Savior, the marrowstripe.

She was actually pretty attractive now that he thought about it. But NO. It was her who denied him a meal once! Her who broke one of his fingers too! Snarling as his mind flipped a switch nearly immediately, he turned towards her and growled.

"YOU! Are you trying to deny me again!?" he shouted.

It probably didn't make any sense to any one but himself. But he was ready to rumble.

((Initiative))  

[Rown]

WHAT'S THIS? A FOE? Savior practically squealed with delight (and it sounded downright terrifying if, you know, Jericho wasn't already crazy it seemed) when Jericho showed up and started bellowing things at her, none of which she understood. The monster didn't know this boil from Jack, even though she'd stabbed him and broken his fingers (once), and she spread her fingers as she let out a roar from beneath her mask.

If it was a fight he wanted, it would be a fight he got!

Having accepted this weird battle for no reason other than just to have a weird battle, Savior cracked her knuckles and started towards the dragon with her steps slow and steady. She picked up speed as she crossed the grounds and was in a full sprint by the time she reached his side. A strong jump sent her into the air and she spun, bringing her leg down on his shoulder with a heavy kick.

It made good, solid contact, and Savior rolled back with a cackle as she got to her feet. The first hit had been hers, and it was a good, strong hit.

She was fast! Then again, Jericho should have known this. He had brawled with her once before. But that was when he was a first year student. Things should have changed by this point. Snarling as he took the hit pretty hard. He staggered back from the impact, before staring hard at the other monster.

There was one other thing. Something he hadn't done in their last fight. His FEAR.

Yes. This would show her who was the better! Gathering up his FEAR, he poured it into one single point to form the twenty sided flaming dice. He poured A LOT of his fear into this. Then, he launched it straight for the Marrowstripe.

HP: 31-18 = 13
Damage: miss  

[Rown]

So he wanted a taste of FEAR, did he? Savior didn't even know what FEAR was but she sure knew how to take down a target. The time she had spent, with West, had honed her skills. the time she had spent chasing down her own kind, killing them and pulling them apart, had honed her skills.

As the dice came towards her she moved, effortlessly, and decided to respond in turn. A deep breath was all it took for her to summon the strength she needed and the monster ran again, leaping into the air and spinning effortlessly. Her leg came crashing against the side of his head this time, her target certainly not his shoulder.

If he got back up, she would be amazed.

Jericho actually felt a little dizzy after using up so much FEAR at once. Once he started to come back around, he saw Savior's foot coming right at him. It was too late to try and dodge and the next thing he knew was that he was on the ground. He wasn't unconscious, but he was dazed as all hell.

"Tiamat's... s**t..." he groaned while staring at the ceiling, practically seeing the stars through it.

Slowly, he rolled over, but he wasn't getting up just yet. No, he was still rather stunned. It seemed to make the voices all around louder too. They were taunting him. He couldn't understand the words, but he knew that was what they were doing. Laughing at him for having lost like this.

HP: 0

...was that it? Honestly, really, was that it? Savior let out a clear and loud groan of pure disappointment, the Marrowstripe lowering her leg down so that she was standing on both feet. She'd kept the kicking pose just in case she needed to strike again, a strong hope since she was ready for battle, but having her opponent go down in just two hits pretty much blew all the wind from her sails.

Now what was she supposed to do with all this pent up adrenaline, not to mention that weird sensation she'd been feeling since she got back onto the campus? It was a strange ache at the base of her stomach that seemed to run hot through her veins, not unlike the feeling of being enveloped in FEAR. She sighed again as she strolled over to the downed dragon, her head tilting sideways.

"Hmmmm." The first words she'd spoken the entire time, Savior knelt down by Jericho's frame, her hand reaching over to touch the side of his face. He felt warm, so very warm, and Savior couldn't help but purr.  

[Blade Kuroda]

Slowly, the dazed feeling was going away. It was taking a bit of time though. Jericho soon realized that Savior was kneeling down by him, placing a hand on his face. Groaning again, he looked over towards her, feeling a weird mix of various things. It was making him rather uneasy right now. He partially wanted to stay down, while the other wanted to move the ******** away.

The clash was also starting to give him a rather large headache. Or was that from the kick he received?

Either way, all he did was just roll away from Savior for now.  

[Rown]

Rolling away wasn't really a good idea because, well, it just meant Savior moved after him. The Marrowstripe felt really bad for putting him in this condition, even though she didn't really understand the concept of guilt just yet, but why had he been so warm? Was he sick? Savior didn't understand the concept of sick either but usually sick things needed to be killed and eaten. Did he just need to be eaten?

He looked kind of big to be eaten but well, it wasn't like she had a small mouth. She purred a bit more as she placed her hand on his face again, her fingers cool yet slightly sandy. Since he was still down she actually lowered herself a bit more so their faces were level, and Savior clicked and whistled softly as if she were in thought. She really wasn't thinking too hard, mostly about how long it would take to digest him, really. The whole "you blow up if you eat a student" sort of escaped her mind at the moment.  

[Blade Kuroda]

As soon as he had stopped rolling, Jericho stared as Savior had followed him. That wasn't it as her face was now really close to his. This did not help with his whole thought process of finding her attractive yet DO NOT TRUST type of thing going on in his head.

"What the jack do you want? Back off!" he ended up snapping while trying to push her back. He took this time to also start pushing himself to his feet. Though, the moment he sat up, a wave of dizziness hit him, forcing him to place a hand on his head briefly.

"Jack dammit. Never enough. Never enough." he muttered to himself.
