| OOC: Special rules for this open battle, guys! The normal rules apply, with the addition of allowing either one poster to use 2 characters at once, or two seperate posters to team up each with 1 character. One or the other. You're up against 2 Psi Warriors at the same time; Schwa, and a good friend of his which happens to be the Psi Warrior SPH Scientist that extracted the poison from Schwa after his Ma Pingon Neo incident. Good luck to all! They stop walking and look around. This part of the woods seems completely perfect for Schwa to show this guy just what he's acquired. "Okay, Schwa," Zin, the 30-year-old specialty Psi Warrior tells his ally, "This part of the woods is bounding in spiritual energy." "Why's that, you think?" Schwa replies. "Long ago, small tribes native to this land held ceremonies in forest clearings at the foot of the mountains. That's why the ground is so grassy and hilly at the same time... respectively, that is. They say places like this are blessed." "Ah. So... What am I doing again?" He silently curses himself for forgetting. "No, it's alright to forget... I want to see these nature-based techniques you picked up. When I purged you, it didn't occur to me that your DNA would alter, and quite frankly I'm fascinated by this find. Show me your skills, Schwa!" Info on how these Psi Warriors look... Schwa has dark, thick hair and wears white, loose clothes and a jet-black blindfold. Zin, on the other hand, wears light-grey, loose clothes complete with a tye-dye stripe from the right shoulder to the left waist, a grey headband and a black eye-patch over his right eye. His hair is already starting to grey slightly and he's got a small beard going, too. Since it's a sunny day out, both Psi Warriors have short-sleeves for now, something you don't tend to see very often. "Okay..." Schwa says, holding his right arm up and concentrating on the spirits of nature. His right arm coats in darkish-purple ether as it, from the hand down, gains a lilac purple color and becomes smooth like plant matter. Zin observes it. "Absolutely unbelievable," he says, impressed. Schwa still concentrates, but not too hard anymore. "Your right arm, where the Assets are strongest in you, seems to be where your plant DNA surfaces. Okay, show me an at--" He stops short and fires green ether behind him, whirling around. Schwa opens his eyes, his arm still purple. "Whoa, what ails ya, Zin?" "Sssh... Someone is near." Schwa and Zin psychically scan the area for anyone nearby... |

| (ooc: I hope you don't mind...) The green ether stops in midair. It spreads out in place, then splits into two. Each one flattens into a disc, visible in full from where the two Psi Warriors are standing. Then bits and pieces begin to fall off of these ethers, being reassembled into a line with a dot below it on the side. The finished product, complete in half a second, reads: YO! A man steps out from behind one of the trees. Incidentally, it's exactly where the scientist was aiming before the shot was commandeered. He's wearing black robes with no fancy symbols on them, and holding a blue book that should be easy to recognize. His hair is black with a couple of silver spots, and his spectacles reflect more colors of light than ought to exist. He walks slowly, and appears to be hiding a limp from a wound in his left leg. But another figure follows him... Much taller, this one wears dark leather covering almost all of the pale skin. Two curved daggers hang unsheathed from a belt that also carries a gold oval inscribed with a black K. Long, black hair hangs down around elfin ears. He seems to be croushed down a small amount, as if ready to spring at and attack anything nearby. Adric: "Haha, almost got you! I was so close, but Kuroi here stubbed his toe on a tree. You're pretty sharp... Hmm, haven't I seen you before? Your name isn't Zin, is it? About fifty years ago I walked into the Psipalace asking for assistance in defeating the last of the Platinum Azurites, and I'm sure you were the first one I talked to. You were training to be a scientist... It looks like you've accomplished something after all these years, at least. Ah. Schwa, Zin (If that IS you), this is Kuroi. He's from a continent far beyond the southern sea, and he's come here, if you can believe it, on a pilgriammage to visit all the Oracle temples! I met him a while ago, and we've become friends... but he doesn't speak this language. Anyone who visits an Oracle temple the same time he does who has a certain amount of affinity for them is granted a telepathic link to him. I'm translating, just so you don't think he doesn't know what's going on. Anyway, I was just thinking it would be neat to have a little duel with you, Schwa, and help you get a feel for your new powers. And here you are, right in our path to Indigo City! How about a little two-on-two? Unless, of course, you're here on Official Business." Adric sure does seem excited... (ooc: I really wanted to use Adric for a while now, but I was afraid of someone joining the fight only to quit later, or them not being particularly awesome. I'd given up hope for MM to respond to the dragon thread, so here I am.) |

OOC: Not at all.  Zin shakes his head in dismay. "Uh... I'm 39 years old, Adric. You must be thinking of someone else..." Schwa, on the other hand, steps forward and bows slightly and politely. "Good to see you again, friend and ally. Kuroi, I am honored to meet another follower of the Oracles. (We need a lot of those nowadays, trust me.) So... 2 on 2 spar? Let's see... We're not exactly busy, so--" "What do you mean?" Zin cuts in, "You were just showing me the plant DNA you picked up, and its effects. This is a training session for ME, not something for you to blow off." "Oh..." Schwa glances down at his purple arm. "Yeah, Zin and I were training, kind of... He wanted to study this Ma Pingon energy I've acquired. He IS a SPH Scientist, you know... the best we have, actually." Zin nods, not able to help but smile. "However, Zin! I could show you the techniques I picked up in a battle just as easily as out of battle. Besides, you could use a workout too!" "Ahm, err-- Schwa, you know very well I am a dove, not a hawk, about these matters..." "Zin, you handled yourself pretty well at that Soul Tomb, I must say... Why back down? Your Attack Power may be low, but you REEK in Defense and tactics." "Not the point. Sparring is a childish activity." "What!? Adric, did you hear that? Talk some sense into him! I, for one, am itching to battle someone, ANYone, it doesn't matter... but Zin needs convincing!" "Yes, that will do... If you can convince me that I should spar with you, it is on." Looks like Zin has challenged Adric to a words-duel before the real battle can begin. |

| Adric smiles. It's fine with him if he gets to have a bit of a talk... "So, someone who bothers to tell me his age, but not his name? That's quite new. I'll begin this with the straightforward path, and we can take detours as necessary, like for example when I overextend a metaphor. So... It seems to me that you too had already planned to work on Schwa's new nature-oriented abilities. You've already shown me that I can't explain why you get what you want when Schwa gets what he wants in this case, so I'd like to start on your dove comment. The dove... I haven't really ever found out how it came to be a symbol of peace. It's beautiful and white-colored, to be sure, but it must cause other creatures to die in order to live, as with every animal. I can understand why you would wish to identify with the symbol, though. Thing is that doves cannot defend themselves. They don't have to do much fighting to get their food in the first place, so they're weak when the hawk, or the eagle, or whatever predatory bird of your choice decides to have a snack of its own. But being the hawk is also not the best choice. Always needing to combat something or another, whether for survival or whatever whim of wings, forces one to forget that the true purpose of fighting should be to prevent the need for battle in the future. Schwa mentioned just now that you've been in combat recently. Obviously you must have been cautious and skillful, or we wouldn't be having this talk. So you're not too close to the dove, nor the hawk. Your balance is fine. But you're not driven. You want to help others reach their maximum potential, but you're content to stay the way you are, making useful contributions along the way. There's a saying, that in the book of life we all must be our own protagonists. Where is your ambition? All people should become stronger, especially if their main desire is to aid the world around them. So, sparring is indeed a childish activity. But in no way can that be considered an insult. What other way could accurately measure the progress that has been made on the road to success? For if you cannot protect yourself, how can you hope to protect those you love? And if you cannot defend those around you, or do not wish to defend them, then do you have the right to live? The world is perpetually teetering on the edge of oblivion, in more ways than either of us could possibly imagine. If your science were to fail, could you still continue onwards? Alright, then. Your turn... Can you best my profundity? I think not!" |

OOC: I'm glad you know that, for you, I'm gonna make you work to get Zin to battle.  Also, this shpiel of Adric's deserves to go in my User Bio, with your permission. It's awesome.There's a long pause... "Well," says Zin, "I understand and very much agree with pretty much everything you've explained in your short shpiel. However, you have not yet convinced me why I should partake in THIS spar. See... Not everyone is cut out to fight. Everyone, in my opinion, and probably your own and many others', though, is cut out to be someone great... they just need to realize how, and it is not always through battle. And, proven partially through my existance here, this includes the Psi Warriors! I help out in the war against Evil, but it is not through direct combat, it is through discovery, thus indirect. I doubt there's anything wrong with that, either... "As long as you can protect yourself! As you said... and I can, but it isn't me, it's the Living Assets which are a part of me, which counts. "And science? Bah, not exactly... SPH, not science. SPIRITUAL science. After all, even magic and its related categories have to follow a certain set of rules, and these rules are much like the Laws of Physics, only not for physical matter. That's the confusing part, because that's technically an Oxy-Moron... Many, many people get that confused on their first impression on me, though, and I KNOW you know how that feels, as even Schwa here thought you a mere Wizard upon meeting you... "And finally, you guessed right on my name, so I thought not to tell you, but it rather confounded me when you mentioned meeting me sometime 11 years before I was born." Schwa has been waiting the whole time, tapping his foot. He finally loses it. "Hel-LOO? We could be waiting here the whole day waiting for you geezers to shut your traps!" Zin glares furiously at Schwa. "What did you call us?" "Oh come on... You KNOW you've got the Geezeritis going, with the patches of grey there, and there..." Just in case Adric may be laughing, "You too!" he adds, pointing at Adric. "I apologize for coming off as harsh and crass, but I want to FIGHT, like, right now! And Zin, frankly I don't care if I have to take them both on singlehandedly! You don't fight, good, but I DO." "Err..." begins Zin... "Ahp, don't wanna hear it. Adric, you ready?" Schwa's hands flare with ether; blue on his left arm, purple on his right. His arm is still purple. Zin sighs and steps back a bit to get out of the way. "Fine... I'll study your moves, Schwa, so I can feel somewhat fulfilled today. But I'm warning you, any more Geezer comments and it'll quickly become 3 on 1." |

| Adric smiles. He loves being called a geezer, mostly because of the ironic ignorance of most people who say it. However, the big surprise coming out of the beginning of the battle has very little to do with Adric. Kuroi (Interesting accent that sounds somewhere between Korean and Jamaican): "Well, then! I suppose Adric should have mentioned that linguistics is an art we both practice. It didn't take too long to get used to this one... But still, it's nice to meet both of you. Let's get started..." Kuroi, though he hasn't ever fought a Psi Warrior, seems to have some measure of confidence. After all, there is a link between the two of them, but it goes much farther than either would imagine... Adric: "Haha! Youth triumphs over reason once again! Let's make this a fight to remember!" Adric snaps open his spellbook, holding it in his right forearm as he makes dramatic gestures with his left. The green YO from before now rises into the air and grows in intensity, though becoming more specified in direction. It condenses into a sphere, shedding turquoise light on the battlefield. Notable effects include that both Adric and his ally seem to be moving ever so slightly faster, and that the two Psi Warriors are probably going to have a hard time if they plan on running around. Meanwhile, Kuroi takes advantage of his increased speed to draw both daggers, and for a moment they're easy to see. Both have blades about 14 inches in length, with a 120 degree bend halfway through, and shine like stars in the fresh light. But the moment ends, and suddenly they're both moving around Kuroi so quickly that it looks like he's standing behind a semi-transparent wall of flashing silver. He quickly sidesteps in front of Adric, ready to defend him for the plan he has in store... Adric Health: |||||||||||||||||||| 60 Mana: |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 294 Kuroi Health: |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 99 Combo: ░ 1 Field Effects Aura of Reassembled Inertia: ||||| 15 (ooc: Whee! HP, Mana, and Combo bars! 15 is the mana of the aura. It goes down by 3 every turn, gradually becoming weaker. Adric can absorb it for however much mana is left, or put more mana into it, but it will disappear at 0, and can't be any stronger than 15.) |

| OOC: You and your meters... Okay, two can play. However, mine will keep with the estimation-tradition a little better... Zin stutters a little... "Now, er, Schwa, uh, this isn't exactly my idea of, well-- Hey! Wall of Blades... Brings back memories, it does. After all, I used to be a Warrior-Cleric. Quite a complex spell to cast, and you seem to have your own little version of--" "ZIN, get over here and FIGHT!" "Err, SCHWA, can't I compliment my foe a little?" "HAH! I gotcha! You said 'my foe', so now you're officially in the spar!" "Ahm... ...!!!" Suddenly Zin's face goes beet-red. "Oops..." Schwa mimics Sensae's facial expression and voice. "Your next assignment is to cast a blessing on Schwa. Go forth, child." "You little whelp!" Zin blurts out, "How dare you! I'll teach you to talk to me with such impunity, dishonorable grasshopper..." Schwa turns to Adric. "Hey, isn't what he said an Oxy-Moron?" Zin goes red again, this time in frusterated anger. "Rrrrrrrgh... You want a blessing? I'll give you a 'blessing'... "Zin T. Chaos Theory!!" (echo effects) As a wave of green ether swirls around Schwa, Schwa gasps. "Ack! No, Zin, I apologize! Aren't we fwieeeends?" "Hmph. I hope you like my 'blessing'." Schwa would love to reply with something REAL cheeky, 'cause he has the perfect comeback in mind, but he can no longer speak, and the feelings in his body are so powerful that he forgets to use telepathy. Schwa's celluar structure is changing! (Hah, leave that to a Scientist...  ) Schwa's whole body is becoming glossy, transparent and blue, and his eyes are becoming teal. His clothes are unchanged.In 10 seconds, the transformation is complete. Schwa looks at himself. He can't speak, so he uses telepathy, and as he does, everyone can hear his words along with a high-pitched "shiny" hum. Zin!! What have you done to me?" "Simple. All Psi Warrior Scientists, as you know, have the means to master T. Techs, the T standing for Transformation. Being scientists, some of our Psi allows us to morph the celluar structure of an ally, and all T. Techs are completely specific on the individual. The T. Techs each knows are unique." "Well, what is this form?" "I studied the cell-structure of Chaos, a bizarre lifeform that once guarded the Chaos Emeralds, on a mission a long time ago... Not mission, expedition. This is the result." "It feels REAL weird. Ah well... Let's see if I can still use Psi." Schwa brings his gel-composed hands together and focuses his energies into them... Cyan ether erupts from them, flaring brilliantly. "Yeah! I feel amazing power in this form! Let's try... Ancient Energy Alpha!" (echo effects) The cyan energy flares up even more, as Schwa repeats a palm-thrust motion with both hands and blue thunderbolts start jumping from Schwa's hands to Kuroi with each thrust. Each high-speed attack deals average Holy/Non-Elemental damage and slightly burns. The knives may be able to deflect some, but it's most definitely random which ones. Zin nods in approval. "Wonderful. He knows his new moveset as a natural instinct, just the way I engineered this morph." At the same time, Zin forms a weapon in his right-hand out of nowhere-- a long, glowing-green whip with an onyx-brandished handle, which arcs slightly sort of like a scythe. He holds the weapon at his side. "I guess I'm in this too, though I'm still not sure how..." Estimated Stats: Schwa - 100% llllllllllllllllllll Zin - 100% llllllllllllllllllll |

| Kuroi eyes the incoming attack warily, for the split milliseconds he has before it reaches him. But speed is his specialty, and lightning-speed counterattacks are well within his tranquil domain. The first bolt nears him, and he rushes towards it, slicing through it with his right knife. He continues running, and the next two are hit by an acrobatic flipping maneuver. Three more are avioded by a movie-style backflip, during which Kuroi drops both knives and catches them between his feet, kicking into the seventh strike with amazing force. The two daggers fly high into the air, and Kuroi tosses four trowing knives in quick succession to counter the next set of attacks. He takes a single hit, then catches his main weapons and removes via stabbing the last of the twelve thunderbolts. However, they weren't completely destroyed... Bits of chaotic Psi energy continue flowing towards Adric, who gleefully forms it into a thundercloud. It flies above Zin, then empties itself downwards with about half the force of Schwa's attack. Should it hit, it wouldn't seem like chaos at all... No, it's been transformed into pure law. More specifically, the law of gravity. It could become much harder for Zin to stand in the face of this attack... And that's the point. All the rest of the energy in the Aura of Reassembled Inertias cascades downwards, forming a caustic mist on the first inch of the ground. This acid cloud drifts over to the general area where Zin has been persistently existing. Interestingly enough, both Adric and Kuroi seem to hover a tiny bit above the danger, but it could cause some nasty damage to people who are, for instance, being forced to lie down by a gravity spell. Throughout the whole maneuver, both combatants remain silent, concentrating on sticking with the plan. Adric: Health |||||||||||||||||||| 60 Mana |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 288 Kuroi: Health |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 90 Combo: ░░ 2 |
