Re: A Snakehearted Experiment: Aftermath, Intense Training [Closed]

Fri Sep 14, 2012 7:27 pm

Amelia wasn't going to allow something. This something was him to live. After she had made sure that he would not hurt himself badly, he still attacked as if he had no heart at all. It was a bit obvious that to this Edo the fight was more than likely to the death. She was going to do her best to take care of that then. Yes it was night time, but Amelia was not going to be leaving the comfort zone of her water. She stayed there, watching him as he began to suck on the wounds. "Not happening..." she mumbled under her breath, as she raised her arm towards him again. "Aisu Sohen." she called out her attack only for her to hear it. Her palm was now facing this Edo, and once she called out the attack, 30 ice shards shot towards him like a wave. All of them different sizes, but each going very quickly. And since he was distracted by the poison that was now in his body, he might have a problem realizing that he should DODGE. (hehe picollo reference)

After that, knowing that she had interrupted his poison sucking, she raised her other arm towards him, holding her palm up to him again. "Mizu Sune-Ku." With that called out, a large snake, just like the one before shot towards him an extremely high speeds, in an attempt to encase him. And, just like before, if he dodged, she would have the snake turn around again and attempt to strike him once more. If he dodged this time, the spell would be stopped and the snake would freeze, falling to the floor like a large chunk of ice. "I have always found it slightly.... idiotic, I guess would be the word.... when opponents would actually allow each other the time to do certain things. Letting you suck the poison out, is not on my to-do list. I was treating this like a semi-friendly match before, but you seem to be doing otherwise... So now, I will not be holding back...." While she was speaking to him, she was getting another one of those snake attacks ready. Now, it was just her waiting for him to make his move. She refused to be the one defeated today.

Edo Yako's eyes widened considerably as he was subsequently assaulted by another hail of icicles. However, he was using his currently enhanced state to use even this to his advantage; managing to suck the poison out of one of his wounds and using the icicles, about five of them, to cut through the other spot he had been intending to slice himself. Five others around his body also damaged him; but there was nothing he could have done to prevent this, as he winced from the further pain but more upset about the damage to his cloak.

As she fired her giant snake, he merely began to breathe. In, out. In out, before at last holding out his hand to the giant snake as it surrounded around him, his hand glowing. The snake froze, and as it did so Edo Yako smiled, his smile frozen in place. His frozen hand was still glowing, for a few moments, he completely frozen in the ice, getting brighter and brighter and brighter still.

Finally, after about five seconds, it was released. A mass of energy, cero like in nature and completely black in color, blew away the tail of the snake. The blast destroyed the line the snake had made as ti rose up from the water, as the blast tracked the snake to its source, slamming down hard onto where Amelia had been standing, leaving a massive crater in its wake.

Edo Yako's body began to twitch, as cracks shot all through the snake around him. Finally it crumbled around him, as he shivered hard; he hadn't wanted to be in the ice like that for that long, and he was already damaged. He knew he was most likely going to lose by then; but he also knew he was going to put up a darn good fight either way. He watched her, wearily, preparing himself to dodge; he didn't feel like getting hit by whatever her next attack was going to be, even as a strange shadow in the shape of Edo Yako successfully materialized behind her, a scythe in one hand...

Seeing his reaction, Amelia just kept her eyes on him. She knew something was coming. That thin layer of ice was not going to hold him for long. After about five seconds, it seemed that he had shot a cero towards her exact location. Since Amelia was not going to be leaving the water, she did the only thing she thought would even help. She froze the water. All of it. Every single drop of water that was around her, she froze it. Once the cero hit, it slammed into the ice very hard and shattered it. The moment it shattered, Amelia raised both of her arms, her hands making a waving motion. The now ice shards from the ENTIRE lake, shot forward towards the Edo as fast as a bullet from a high powered rifle. At this point, it should have been obvious that she was aiming to tear him to shreds. The cold and focused look in her eyes was a dead giveaway for what she was trying to do. Now it was about time for her to move. It's not like the water was around her anymore, and she had wasted enough of her spiritual energy, so it was time for a change of scene.

Amelia ran forward and hopped out of the lake. As she went to land, she brought two of the ice shards under her feet and had them bring her upwards towards the Edo. All the ice that she had shot at him before, she melted back into water and brought it upwards. It was now like a large bubble around them both. Big advantage on her part since the water would not cause her any resistance, but it would him. She went to send a punch straight towards his face. As she did this, she made ice surround her entire arm and fist to cause more damage. After that, she swung her body around, bringing her leg towards his side and doing the same thing with the ice to cause more damage. And for her third strike, using the momentum from her other kick, she swung herself around again, bringing her leg higher and towards the side of his head, once again doing the same thing with the ice. Not only would the ice cause more damage to him, but also give her a small set of armor and protection just in case.

Edo Yako's eyes widened as he saw what she was planning to do, as his arms crossed across his chest. The shards ripped around him, his teeth bit to the quick as his flesh was torn in various places. He shot his healing energy through his body as quickly as he could, trying to fix his body as it kept getting damaged, using his full power as the warming sensation of his healing went through him.

Finally, the barrage ceased as he was forced to refocus his attention on Amelia. She was coming towards him now, he saw; which was just fine by him, as he reached his hands back, taking a deep breath. In his hands, shadows began to vibrate, as they extended from his one scythe. It formed a gigantic pole, fifty feet in size... before growing a massive blade. Then, the entire thing shrunk, forming a nearly bursting mass in his hands from the amount of force the blade had stored up. In addition, it would allow him to move better through the resistance of the water, as the scythe, once it got moving, would have more force than the resistance of the water. However, it would take massive amounts of strength to move the scythe, as was apparent from the bulging muscles in Edo Yako's arms as he deflected her punch, her fist hitting the shadowy shaft and deflecting off of it.

The scythe came around, stopping the brunt of her kick as it came at his side, but not able to stop all of the ice and water that came into his side, causing a great amount of blood to fall forth as he looked at her. Finally, he let go of the scythe as his arm came straight up, his hand bleeding as he stopped her foot right in its tracks due to the sharp ice. However, his grip was strong as he pulled her by her foot, as his fist came forwards, filled with shadow as he brought it towards her stomach...

And the shadows that had formed the scythe slid into his fist, before firing a huge amount of spikes vaulting straight forwards into her. Her best way to deal with this would be to just take the attack directly and have the spikes go through her body once...

As opposed to a hundred times.

Amelia was one of those people that thought ahead a few steps. One thing she had learned about this Edo was that he was all about brute force. It was like all he concentrated on was landing blows and dealing damage. He didn't even see the trap she had laid out for him. As her first punch was blocked by his scythe, she smiled. Then, he blocked her kick and on her second kick seemed to have grabbed her foot. This was her cue. As he went to send a punch towards her stomach, she swung her arms outwards and every single amount of water around them froze, starting from the two of them and ending outwards. As this happened, his punch was stopped. Amelia then unfroze the water only around her and anything under her, allowing her to drop from the froze ball of water in the sky and down towards the earth. As she landed, she looked up to the ball of ice and the Edo stuck inside. She was hoping this was going to be her last move because she was beginning to feel her energy lessen to the point where she might not be able to hold out much longer.

Amelia gathered water around her hands, keeping them flat. As this was done, she began swinging her arms around, aiming the tips of her fingers towards the Edo. With each swing a very sharp sheet of water shot forward and very high pressure, cutting through the ball of ice and hopefully through the Edo as well. She did this about twenty times before she finally stopped. At this point, she was out of breath and for the first time in this battle, she was sweating. She could feel her energy depleting. If this kept up for much longer, she was going to be in trouble. She only hoped that this Edo was almost out of energy. And with everything he too had done in this battle, he probably was. Only time would tell.

Edo Yako's eyes widened as she began... to spin. ...Uh oh. He thought as he felt his eyes widening, then shooting open as she fired off waves of ice. He began to move extremely quickly, while the ice cooled down all the water around him. Not good not good not good... He thought, a bead of sweat running down the side of his head as his eyes darted all around, and he moved extremely quickly as he tried to dodge all of the ice waves.

He knew that in normal circumstances, he could have made it through this barrage with the normal cuts and such. However, this time, there was one thing different... the cloak he was wearing. The ice quickly tore it all up, and Edo Yako's foot slipped... into one of the holes as he felt himself slipping forwards and down, at an insane speed as an ice wave shot up to him...

And bisected him, as his lower half went flying off with the ice wave, and his torso descended down to the ground, landing with a dull THUD and rolling over to where Amelia was, as Edo Yako looked up at Amelia. "You know... You were... fighting... a medic... the whole time..." He said, as he smiled a great smile as he began to bleed out, laughing a merry laugh. His eyes were wide and taring at her as his blood began to change the color of the water around them, and the light slowly faded from his eyes...

And he was dead on the ground before Amelia.

Thu Sep 20, 2012 8:53 pm

Amelia looked down towards the fallen Edo and walked closer. He was laughing hysterically, but he was not going to survive. She figured this was out of desperation and panic. Laughing like this was not normal for those who realized what exactly was happening to them. "I almost... feel bad..." she thought to herself as she gave a saddened look. Now, dead before her, was Edo Yako. Suddenly, now that everything seemed to have finished, Amelia turned her attention towards Doctor Hebi and fell to one knee. She had used up a massive amount of energy. She used enough to actually make her feel slightly weakened. She wasn't exactly used to fighting an opponent of such strength. In fact, she couldn't remember every having to fight someone. Sure, she's been in one or two little things, but the first one, Hebi came and saved her from that Justin fellow. After that, she was unsure. Now, with her energy drained, she pushed herself back up to her feet and stumbled towards Doctor Hebi. She took in a stressed breath and slowly let it out, sweat dropping down the side of her face. The adrenaline that she felt from fighting was now gone and she was tired.

"I know don't if I did as good as you wanted me to...." she said in a soft whisper as she stopped about five feet away from him, "But I really did try my best. I did win in the end as well." A small smile formed on her lips as her hair shifted from black, back to it's normal color of white. "I-is... there anything else... you wish for me to do?" she asked him as if she really were willing to continue, but any intelligent person would see that she was definitely out of the game. Although, if he asked her too, she would jump at the chance to fight for him again.

As Yako's disemboweled body rolled onto the ground, several snakes that had been watching all around the lake began to slither to one spot. From them arose the figure of the back of a cloak, and then the rest of the cloak appeared. His face was not clear as the girl made her way back up to him, stopping five feet away as she stopped.

"Just one." He said with the extremely snakey voice only he had as his body seemed to almost appear next to hers, as he looked down at her. "Allow me to test just one more thing." He said as he lowered his lips to hers, kissing her fully as his snake like eyes looked down to her own.

This was a test that Yin had suggested; so see her reaction to positive reinforcement for work well done by the gesture that Yin seemed to believe would be effective. Now he watched slowly as he felt a strange tingle at the back of his own neck, not exactly sure what it meant but not finding it to be of the same snakey quality that most of his body was with... it was almost... warm.

Amelia heard him say that she was going to be tested once more. She wasn't sure what this test was going to be, but she figured she would have to stand. She was wrong. She didn't even get a chance to stand and their lips met. Amelia's eyes widened in shock, her heart skipped a beat, and then began to pound excitedly. She brought her hand up to the side of his face, wanting to touch him, but for a moment she did not. She wasn't sure how to react for just a moment. With what she had just been through, her mind was on fight, fight, fight. With this suddenly happening, it took her off guard. Luckily she quickly regained her composure and calmed down. She closed her eyes, set both of her hands gently across his face, and pushed herself towards him, welcoming the kiss. As the kiss continued, Amelia brought her hands away from his face, but then moved her arms to wrap around him, at the same time as pulling him in closer. In a way, she wanted him to fall onto her, but this was Hebi. There was no way he was going to easily fall like that, so instead, after a few moments, she broke the kiss and took in a deep breath. "Wh-Why did you want to test that?" she gulped, blinking a few times at him.

Sun Sep 23, 2012 6:55 pm

The Doctor moved away from Amelia as she broke the contact, before looking at her for any kind of reaction. He noticed she took a deep breath afterwards, and he smiled as he tried to consider why this would be. Was it a natural bodily reaction? She didn't need air; he knew how long she could go without breathing underwater.

He blinked, watching as she asked what it was for. "It was to test your reaction to a reward of this variety... for positive reinforcement, if you will. It was suggested by Yin." He said, before bliking and saying one more thing. "Although it's interesting... I think I enjoyed the contact." he said, lookign up wordlessly at the sky. After all, he knew not the touch of another being. "It's the first time that I've ever done something like that before, and it was not wholly unpleasing." He said before his eyes lowered downwards, beholding Amelia once again.

"So tell me, how did it feel? Do you feel stronger? What did you think when you won? What were you thinking as his torso landed in front of you?" He asked as he watched her carefully, getting into the true data mining of the operation...
