[1v1] Wanted Dead Or Alive (Shun v Hel)

[Lucyal]

Battling made her feel better. It was a rush of adrenaline, and proof that she was alive and kicking. Nothing made existing feel better than fighting for it. She had let that get muddled by other things. Why…did things have to be complicated? The truth was that they didn’t have to be…things could be simple. Battling was simple. Battling was grand.

As soon as they stepped foot into the gym, Hel summoned her spear and brandished it, fingers gripping her weapon fondly.

No need to dilly dally.

She dropped the net near by for now, since now held her spear in both hands. She didn’t even ask if he was ready, she just gunned it, charging the grim.  

[Blade Kuroda]

Unfortunately for Shun, he was sluggish from having trained himself to exertion. His knuckles were still bloodied and his body was not in a good condition. That didn't stop him from raising his daggers to brace himself for Hel's incoming attack.  

[Lucyal]

Luckily, or unluckily for Shun, Hel was very much energized and full of piss and vigor now. It probably made for brutally realistic battling conditions against Hunters. True to her word, she wasn’t holding back.

Hel barreled right at him, pulling her spear back and swinging it upwards in a vertical strike with a cry.

HP: 50/50
DMG: 3  

[Blade Kuroda]

Shun at least was able to move back enough to keep himself from being cut in half by that attack. He still felt the blade of her spear biting into him though. It was a little pain, but it was nothing. Nothing compared to how things could have been for Mitsu. Or how things still are now. He had no idea what her condition was at this moment.

Gritting his teeth, he rushed back, slicing out at the valkyrie.

HP: 47
Damage: 0  

[Lucyal]

Hel leapt back away from Shun as he lashed out at her, missing his dual daggers.

She pulled up a leg and kicked out at stomach, looking to push him back. She could be ruthless. She would be, for the sake of this. She would make sure to ride his a** this entire battle until the end. Because she could. Because that was what Shun wanted.

HP: 50/50
DMG: 1  

[Blade Kuroda]

Shun had started to move, but it wasn't in time before he took a kick to the belly. Grunting, he staggered back. He didn't let himself get pushed back too far though. With a grimace, he rushed back forth, slashing three times with his blades, aiming to cut up his opponent here. He had to be just as ruthless.

HP: 46
Damage: 11  

[Lucyal]

Hel was pleased to see Shun quickly right after her, and with a good attack as well. The ghoul let out a hiss as the grim took out a good chunk of her shield with that one attack, and she let out a choked laugh. “About time.”

“No mercy, Shun.” She fueled. “No holds barred. You better be out for my dissipation as well, okay!?” She pulled her foot up and spun, looking to nail his side and knock away from her.

HP: 39/50
DMG: 2  

[Blade Kuroda]

"I was already planning on it."

Fight to kill.

Though, that snark she gave out irritated Shun. Grunting as she knocked into him, he just launched one of his blades at her while he was shoved back and out of his normal striking range.

HP: 44
Damage: 5  

[Lucyal]

She grinned, feeling the heat of battle.

“Good.” She sneered, glad she could count on him for equal treatment. She did look a bit surprised though, as he threw one of his daggers at her, and her brows furrowed as it got her. “Pffft! Not bad.” She growled, but swept her spear along the ground and launched the dagger away from the both of them, against a wall. Not that it did much, but it meant that Shun couldn’t just pick it up, he’d have to re-summon it.

Even though Shun was out of striking distance, Hel wasn’t. She swept her spear around in a wide arc quickly, swiping his mid-section.

HP: 34/50
DMG: 6  

[Blade Kuroda]

Shun indeed just resummoned his dagger back to his hand. He was a little too slow though, as her blade slashed into his midsection. Dropping a dagger, he grabbed onto the shaft of her spear, grimacing. He then pulled her close to lash out with his free hand, going straight for her throat.

HP: 38
Damage: 13  

[Lucyal]

In all honesty, this was something Hel should probably train more for. Opponents all too often grabbed her weapon and used it to their advantage. Like right now.

The ghoul was jerked forward, and immediately found Shun’s hand around her throat. The ghoul gasped, and now choked for air. She narrowed her eyes, and dropped her weapon. Hel immediately wrapped both of her arms around his wrist, and in addition, leapt off of the ground and swung one of her legs around Shun’s arm, now adding all of her weight to that one arm in hopes of knocking him off balance.

HP: 21/50
DMG: 5  

[Blade Kuroda]

He didn't expect Hel to drop her weapon too. For a moment, his eye widened as she grabbed onto his wrist and basically threw him to the ground with an elaborate maneuver. Shun hit the ground pretty hard, and felt a little dazed as a result.

HP: 33
Damage: 0  

[Lucyal]

Hel rolled and immediately released him, pushing herself back up to her feet. Instead of reclaiming her weapon, though she made a dash for the net, and grabbed it. Hel whipped around and threw it at him.

No better time to try than when he was down and stunned, right?

HP: 21/50
DMG: 0  

[Blade Kuroda]

Luckily for Shun, he managed to come around. Rolling out of the way of the net, he pushed himself up a little while swinging his legs hard out at her own, looking to sweep her down. Once that was done, he called for this daggers to follow up with a stab.

HP: 33
Damage:8  

[Lucyal]

Hel went down, not expecting Shun to respond so fast. She fell onto her back with an ‘oof’, followed up by a hiss as he sunk another one of his daggers in. Damn. Her shield was started to reach that point where it was waning.

With a growl, Hel brought her legs up and kicked at the grim, pushing him off of her.

She rolled back and to her feet, summoning her weapon. She muttered something under her breath, and her weapon was bathed in a deep purple aura. Pulling her arm back, the ghoul then chucked her spear at the grim.

HP: 13/50
