B.o.t.S.: Rematch of hate

In Sonron, the competition was about to start but one battle was under way that was more important than any medal, one of pride.

Adalgar threw his sphere up and so did his adversary, one who calls himself the boogeyman. The rain of spears and then the 2 sheaths. Adalgar was quick to grab 2 spears and then start a savage but at the same time coordinated attack, not letting his guard down but also not letting up on the attack.

“You’re doing well, definitely better than last time” the guy said.
“I’ve been training every day since I lost to a friend” Adalgar said with anger. They then locked weapons and leaned in close to one another.
“And who might this friend be?”
“Someone who can kick your ass easy”
“Good to know”

They jumped back and then went at it. Adalgar kept his distance by just using the spear heads while the guy just blocked them. He then went on the offensive, releasing glowing white blades with each swing, and made Adalgar get a little more defensive. There was a crowd forming to watch the battle and the cheer but it wasn’t clear which one was being cheered on. Adalgar wasn’t paying attention to the crowd and just went on fighting. When Adalgar thrusted he got it stuck on the sheath openings were he dropped that spear and punched the guy in the face and then grabbed a new spear and continued his assault. All of a sudden there a loud voice on all the intercoms and everyone stopped what they were doing.

“Helloooo all combatants, this is your announcer speaking, Vluad, and the tournament is about to begin, all trains carrying both friends and foes have come and gone so now let’s get the rules out of the way. All battles that have already transpired and those happening at the moment will count, so don’t try the lie for we do see all. Next rule is be a good sport and don’t steal or severely injure on purpose or you will be disqualified. Third, if you are in a battle, winner has to wait 5 minutes while loser waits 3. Also if you are the holder of those fabulous red scarfs and you lose, you and your team no longer exists though that doesn’t mean you can’t join another group. Forth rule, all people can only fight… wait hold on I dropped the paper” Vluad said and we he rustling sounds, “found it. Now let’s see, 3 fights a day because this is a 3 day event. So with that out of the way the 37th combatant tournament beginsssss… NOW”

“I know that kid” the guy said and Adalgar got angry and blindly attacked.

Despite doing this on purpose and blocking he wasn’t prepared for how strong the attack was. In fact, it seemed like he was fighting in a completely different fashion then he was before. Adalgar was more focused and his strikes where now greatly focused on vital spots then he was before. However, the guy quickly adapted and now had the upper hand again. After a bit the guy gave a yawn of boredom and then prepared to swing with a glowing sword.

“Albino dicer” the guy said and then did a quick spin, leaving after images of his glowing white swords, while moving forward and then slashed once and all the after images shot straight at Adalgar.

To his displeasure, all the glowing blades were real enough to cut him up even though he blocked and to add more insult the guy stomped Adalgar in the chest, making him go back a ways and fall down. After getting up, Adalgar was breathing heavily but was standing straight.

“So you still stand, goody” the guy said letting his sheaths hit the floor.
“Yeah and you know what, it’s over” Adalgar said walking to his opponent.
“How so?”
“This, Hornet armory…” Adalgar said thrusting his spear forward to the guy’s face. He however jumped backwards and missed the glowing spear head.
“Missed” he said smugly but then felt something slice his cheek. When he landed he saw something outrageous that he never saw coming.
“Swords” Adalgar completed the sentence as he put the weapon to his side, the spear heads had turned into a long, glowing sword.

The battle continued but the guy had to change his fighting style again and the new swords made the battle much harder for him. Adalgar was swinging the blades like they weighed the same. After getting cut a few times the guy finally got the patterned of Adalgar’s sword play. This however was still pretty hard for him just to get used to the range of the weapons. After a bit of fighting, Adalgar got his new swords stuck in the sheaths again.

“That was fun but shows over” the guy said.
“You kidding, the show already started and it must go on. Shift” Adalgar said and then his swords turned into a flail in one hand and a ax in the other.
“Damn”

Now Adalgar was more willing to get in close and the awkwardness of the flail and the weighted head of the ax made studying this style even harder. Adalgar wasn’t giving him any room or a moment to think and the battle was fierce. The guy jumped back and then put both arms on the opposite sides of his body as he could, almost like he was wrapping himself.

“This ends, Albino scissors” the guy said.
“As if” Adalgar said and then moved forward and put a well-placed foot in the center of the guy’s arms before the swing could do anything other than expel their glowing blades. Still trying to think on what the next step, Adalgar used the fail and bash his head in the ground.

He got back up quickly but then got a ax in his lower right leg. Taking it out quickly he got back up to see something just as crazy as these new weapons. Adalgar grabbed a new spear but then put that in the bottom of the shaft and then he said ‘Shift’ and the flail turned into a jousting lance. He then rushed to skewer his opponent but only pierced him in the chest as he jumped back. Adalgar then grabbed the ax he threw and then it turned into a sword.

“Greeeaaat” the guy said.
“Don’t worry, we’re just at the half way point” Adalgar said and then did a less confusing but just as hard to study attack because it was it was faster.

Not wanting to risk any more damage, the Boogeyman became very defensive. Blocking, or at least trying to block the attacks. The lance is hard to block and the added sword is just as hard to block when knocked off balance.

“Screw this” the guy said and then got offensive and tried to beat him with strength alone.

This chose to be a slightly better solution but still not the good one. After getting a few good hits in each other, Adalgar put the sword into the bottom of the lance and not only made it longer, it turned into a real spear. Adalgar started to spin his weapon expertly and if it was block and there is flesh forward, he lunged. If there wasn’t, he brought the butt of the shaft to whack the side of his opponent. Adalgar was confident but it seemed like both were reaching their limits, both finding spaces to put a successful strikes. Adalgar garbed one more quarter spear and added it to his weapon. The guy could just barely stand due to the wound in his right leg.

“This is the final song of this concert” the guy said with anger, “Albino web”
“Then let’s make the finally worth remembering” Adalgar said. The guy swung his sheaths madly and made a web like structure from slicing the air and then made it shoot forward with one final X like strike.
“Hornet armory, grand stinger!” Adalgar said and threw his spear which was in a full yellow glow.

The 2 attacks bashed into each other while both parties are too tired to move much (not to mention both attacks where pretty fast). Finally something broke, the Grand stinger went through the web leaving a large hole but both were head to their intended targets. The spear pierced the center of the chest of the guy while the web completely diced up Adalgar. The attacks impacted at the same time and made the guy fly backwards while Adalgar was in the process of falling down with one leg in the air. He then stamped that foot down and put his fist in the air with the cotton wrist band on it. Adalgar has won.

While the guy was on the ground, Adalgar went to a building with a sign that just had a fork and knife and no door looked like an entire wall was cut out. When Adalgar got up to order he was met with a good meal sized plate.

“I saw you and you got rid of a big nuisance so this one’s on me” the female bartender said.
“Thank you but I came to get a snack for a friend too” Adalgar said.
“Well if your part of a team then…” she said before looking on who came in, “Oh Kedehern, what do you want?”
“Nothing, I came in to see if Adalgar seen the other lately” Kedehern said with no real emotion.
“So he’s part of your team?”
“Yes”
“Then I have a base where you all can stay for the next few days.
