Blackblade Tournament!

[Reizer Atma]

The rest of the shot flies past him and demolishes the wall, which happened to be where Shotgun was standing near at the time. However, the little bit that hit Faust was enough to dislocate his arm and spin him about a bit.

[Kursed]

Faust shudders severly but charges again

[Reizer Atma]

Rei thought it was time to end this. Going out of contect, he charges forward with his right arm cocked again."Second bullet."

[Kursed]

(You won!)
The bullet hits Faust hard he stumbles but collapses back wards unconscious. Valkyre stood up properly at the sight of Faust collapsing, she looked at Rei and smirked.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei stood there in the same position, his right arm outstretched, his opponent lay across the arena, unconcious. Two of the spikes on his shoulder desintegrated before his entire arm went back to normal, a satisfied smile on his face."Now thats what I've been waiting for."He walks over and picks up Faust's unconcious body, taking him to the med lab.

(At least hes a good sport, good fight DP =3)

[Kursed]

(Good fight)
Valkyre walked up with Rei to the med lab. Faust made a slight moan as he was laid on the bed. He opened his eyes weakly.
"What happened?" Faust asked Valkyre.
"You got your butt kicked," Valkyre put a hand on Faust's shoulder. "Rest, you can come back out when you're ready."
Valkyre exited the room and returned to the arena

[Reizer Atma]

Rei had already left the room after he laied Faust down on the bed. He wasn't always so noble, but he thought that anyone fighting to prove themselves didn't deserve to be left to rot.

[Black Knight]

"Rei Wins!" Raphael announces as Faust's name goes black on the monitor screen, knowing very well how obvious it was on it's own.

Battle One
Roy VS SteelFists

Battle Two
Moonshade VS Ziggy

Battle Three
Shotgun VS Valkyre


Battle Four
Rei VS Faust

"And so we move on onto the semi finals!!" he adds and the monitor screen goes black, soon coming back with the new battles...

Battle Five
Steelfists VS Valkyre


Battle Six
Moonshade VS Rei

[Kursed]

Valkyre nodded and walked up to the arena, saying as quiet as normal.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei comes out just in time to see the fight monitor. He'd hoped he wouldn't have to fight the ninja girl until the finals. This could get tricky, but he still had a chance.

[Steel Valor]

SteelFists likewise reports to the arena, waiting for Raphael to give the call. On the way over he congratulates Rei. "Bullet techniques huh? How peculiar, congratulations."

He stops in the middle of the ring and mentally prepares himself for the fight. "Good luck to you."

[Black Knight]

Raphael looks at the two contestants and then puts the mic in front of him "Let the first semi final battle BEGIN!"

[Kursed]

Valkyre made a fireball in her hands and shoot it at Steelfists just as the battle started. She withdrew her dagger straight after

[Steel Valor]

SteelFists simply freezes his own left hand and uses it to smack the fireball out of the way. At the same time the fire unfreezes his hand, he tosses a spiral ball of high pressure water at Valkyre. Water against Fire, interesting.

(This is gonna be fun <3)

[Reizer Atma]

Rei leans back against the wall, tossing on his shades as he watches the fight. He watches them both carefully, analizing their attacks. If he won his next match, he'd have to fight whoever won this one, and it always helped to be prepared.

[Kursed]

Valkyre jumped sidwards, dodging the water attack and then jumped into the air towards Steelfists. She slashed out with her dagger

[Steel Valor]

He sees the dagger coming and knows it will be lethal as he studied it in Shotgun's fight fight with her. Spinning over to the side, Steel leaves an ice figurine of himself where he was previously standing.

[Kursed]

Valkyre landed infront of the statue, she kicks at it and makes the statue fall and shatter. She turned to the real Steelfists.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei riases a brow as he looks on."Hm, hes pretty good with the ice element it seems, and I wouldn't say hes slow...this could be intresting."

[Shotgun da ferret]

"No no, he's slow. VERY slow." Shotgun smirks. "He's going to be out of breath pretty soon."

[Steel Valor]

I was able to freeze the bottom of my shoes in order to move faster. Otherwise I might've lost already. Steel poises himself into a boxing stance, all of the ice that was previously lying on the ground levitates and encloses around his fists into the shape of boxing gloves. "I wouldn't just stand there if I were you."

[Kursed]

"Bring it," Valkyre said with a smirk, she tensed her muscles

[Steel Valor]

Steel rushes for the first time in the fight. He punches her square in the stomach and jumps back bracing himself for the counter.

[Kursed]

Valkyre stepped back and shoke her head getting her senses back. She jumped and fire warped behind Steelfists, while in midair she did a hard roundhouse kick into the back of his head. She warped again before he could react, and reappeared some feet away on the other side of the arena.

[Steel Valor]

Steel lands with thud and quickly recovers. He strikes again this time with harder punch to the stomach and repeats the action of jumping back. The only thing different this time is that there was a patch of ice where the punch landed.

[Kursed]

Valkyre winced as the punch hit and blast Steelfists backwards. She melted the ice on her stomach and ran forward, she jumped and kicked into Steelfists' chest

[Reizer Atma]

Rie glances at Shotgun as he comments."That a fact? This could get ugly quick then. Ice is strong, but even the thickest ice melts with enough heat."

[Steel Valor]

But even the greatest of fires can be doused by water. Steel mutters to himself. I can probably pull it to a stand off in strength or prolong the fight to recover then attack. Hm, no wonder Shotgun had some struggle.

The ice on his melts to water and runs off of them. He points to Valkyre in the gesture similar to a gun and aims for a special point in her leg. A small shard of water jumps from it and skids through the air into the target. A move loosely derived from Rei's earlier fight, hopefully it will immobilize that leg. "Rain bullet!"


(Thanks for the idea Rei. Sorry if it appears as if I stole it.)

[Kursed]

Valkyre didn't have time to react and as she landed from the kick her leg collapsed from underniegh her.
Great, she thought to herself as she weakly stood back up using her wings to balance her.

[Steel Valor]

Steel wobbles as he realizes that the damage earlier in the fight is starting to catching up to him. He makes one final declaration. "Damn, I was too reckless. Sorry Valkyre, but let's finish this with one fell swoop. Last one standing is winner."

[Kursed]

Valkyre nodded, and stood ready.

[Steel Valor]

SteelFists immediately dashes at the cat robot hybrid. He was ready, he was going to use one his strongest moves. Everything all in one punch, he rears back and follows through with with a punch intended for Valkyre's already injured midsection. His fist stretches out within just an inch before it, and he opens his hand and pops out a high pressure water ball in the form of a spike ball. "Angel's Deliverance!"

[Kursed]

Valkyre already had thought only seconds ahead of the move and used fire warp to dodge the attack. She re-appear behind the ferret and channelled as much power into her next attack. Valkyre pulled her arms back and snapped them hard into Steelfists' back, sending a heat shock wave through him that made Steelfists go flying.

[Steel Valor]

Steel was taken by surprise, he flies and lands with a thud on the cold unforgiving ground. He struggles to get up and fight again but to no avail. The true speed of Valkyre and her firey attacks has defeated him. "Erm, I-I lost. Great fight!"

(Congrats DP <3)

[Kursed]

(Thank you and good fight Steel)

[Steel Valor]

(Thanks)

Steel wanders back up to the stand with his head hung high. At last he has found someone who can beat him. He sits down where Rei and Shotgun are located. Removing is jacket, he looks at with great disdain. He looks at the metal weight plate in the back where Valkyre had hit. There was a huge dent in it, but he ignored it. "Damn, my jacket has a couple of burns on it. Oh well..."

[Reizer Atma]

Rei smiles and shakes his head a bit as the fight was now over. He looked forward to his fight against Moonshade. He had a good deal of experience dealing with speedy opponents, and this wouldn't be any walk in the park.

[Kursed]

Valkyre walks down to where the others were and sat down on another chair. She winced whenever she moved her injured leg. Valkyre leaned back on the wall and shut her eyes, trying to get as much rest as she can.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei slowly steps back into the arena, taking a look at the shattered stone and scortch marks on the ground, making a metal note as he waited for his opponent.

[Black Knight]

A woman from the medical team, a human and lion hybrid with pale skin, black fur and long white hair, walks up to Valkyre and kneels down beside her. Her hands glow of white energy as she puts them to her injured knee, healing it...

Raphael glances at the scoreboard and then looks down at the battle field "Ladies and gentlemen, after a ten minute break we'll continue with the next battle...The contestants may still enter the arena when they wish..."

Battle Five
Steelfists VS Valkyre


Battle Six
Moonshade VS Rei

[Reizer Atma]

Rei wasn't going anywhere. He stretches out his arms, then gets on the grounf and does some one handed push-ups.

[Shotgun da ferret]

"Now do you see why it wasn't that easy?" Shotgun grins at the fact that Steel lost. "And you said you had this fight from the start."

[Kursed]

Valkyre opened her eyes as the medic heeled her leg. When the medic left Valkyre stood up and walked over to Faust which was leaning against the wall.
"I missed the first half but I have to say that was a pretty close fight," Faust said.
"Meh," Valkyre shrugged. She leaned on the wall next to Faust.

[Steel Valor]

"I never stated that Shotgun. You made that up." Steel retorts. He fiddles with his thumbs and looks at the arena. "Hm, final fight already. I didn't it expect to see it so soon."

[shadowknux]

Moonshade had heard she was to fight next and had come out into the arena, wondering if anything would change about the circular, colosseum type arena or if it would just be the opponent that was different.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei notices Moonshade walking into the arena and slowly gets to his feet, watching her movements carefully. This one could be tricky.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade looks Rei up and down, thinking how has a powerful looking body which means he would be strong. What represented even more of a danger however, was that he moved with efforess grace despite his muscle, this spoke of agility and significant skill in han to hand combat.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei continues watching her every move, both of them it seems. The fight hadn't been given the signal to start yet, but they were given plenty of time to figure out a few things about one onother only by looking at them. Rei just grins at her as their eyes finally meet."This is going to be fun."

[Steel Valor]

"They are true fighters. Studying each other before the battle even started. I wonder what that ninja has up her sleeve for this one, watch closely Shots." Steel orders his brother abruptly.

[Black Knight]

"And so, let the second semi final battle begin!" Raphael announces

[Reizer Atma]

Rei moves into his usual stance, his eyes never leaving her's, watching for any sort of movement.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade advances slowly, currently in a slightly crouched posture a she started closing a distance. Her step is casual yet ready to uncoil in a moment...

[Reizer Atma]

Rei whips out the chain on his left arm, trying to whip her with it, or catch one of her arms or legs.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade catches the chain on her right arm, as it wraps round her wrist she grabs hold of it with her other hand, diggng her heels in with a bit of a smile.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grins, grasping the chain with his other hand, starting to pull her toward him through the chain, the ground breaking apart under her feet as she tried to keep from being pulled toward him.

[shadowknux]

Observing the movements of the muscles in his arms, Moonshade continues smiling and when she gets pulled about halfway she tenses the muscles in her legs and releases the grip with her feet. This allows her to use the tension in the chain pulling, which has now acted like a catapult and sent her hurtling toward Rei. When she zooms past Rei she pulls with her arms so the chain wraps around Rei's neck, allowing her to land on his shoulders behind his head in a sitting position, her legs also round his neck.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei wasn't quick enough to dodge the flying body, or the chain, however, he was smart enough to raise his right arm, the chain wrapping around it more than his neck. This also kept her from getting her legs all the way around his neck, preventing her from choking him into submission.

[Segan]

I put on my robe and wizard hat...

[Black Knight]

(Just because that made me laugh out loud I'm gonna let it pass xD)

[shadowknux]

(yeah, it was worth a chuckle XD)

Moonshade would be cut short of reaching his neck and while in the air she releases the chain, the force llowing her to spin high past over Rei's head, landing a bit in front of him she immediately throws a drawn kunia behind her without turning, aiming for his head.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei's chains untangle quickly, just enough to guard against the kunai, catching it in one of the links of the chain. He steps forward, taking a swing at her with his right hand.

[shadowknux]

As soon as the Kunai was thrown, Moonshade pivots on her heel and darts forward with incredible speed, in a crouched posture she ducks under the strike and drives a powerful punch into Rei's gut.

[Reizer Atma]

The punch had hit, but even for a ninja it didn't seem to do as much as normal, given Rei's endurance. He quickly reaches out, grappling her woth both arms, squeezing her body tightly to his, crushing her agaisnt his muscular frame.

[shadowknux]

During the strike to Rei's gut, Moonshade had kept her other hand by her item bag in case she needed to react. Using that hand now, still in that rouched posture before Rei's arms can close around her she slashes him across the thighs with a drawn kunai. In that moment of shock and pain, the arms enclosing on her woul,d now have surely hesitaed a monent, giing her the time to perform a straight vertical kick to the chin before she backflips away.

That vertical kick would very likely srnd him backward and since it is a blow to the lower jaw, may actually knock him unconcious despite his evident endurance level.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei was too slow to block the quick slash, or the kick, and he did infact stumble back. However, what Moonshade didn't count on was his ability to manipulate the chains the were currently under her. As he stumbles back, he whips up his arm, the chains wrapping around the leg the was still in the air from the high kick. Using her weight to stabalize himself, he yanks her off of her feet, grabbing his chain with both hands before slamming her body back down onto the arena floor like a human morning star. He did this a total of 5 times, the last one, however had an added bonus., while tossing her down toward the floor, for the 5th swing, he slams his right fist into the ground, causing a barrage of earthy chunks to come flying upward into the ninja's body before landing harshly on the floor, the chains being pulled back to his arm from around her leg.

[shadowknux]

In her past Moonshade had had much experience and training in ssuming the void when necessary, which allowed her absolute concentration in times of high pain, such as being slammed into the floor. Blocking the pain off, it w someone else's pain, as Rei rises her to smash a second time she twists a litle...

Smash...

As he raises her a third time, she spins out of the chains, breaking out she lands on her feet in a crouched posture and leaps backward. Landing a little istance away she lookks at Rei, habeen a little unsteady on her feet for a moment she soon straightens again. Moonshade crtainly was not one who would go down easily...

[Reizer Atma]

Rei wipes his mouth and spits out a bit of blood, going back into his stance, having quite the tolerance for pain himself. The crashes had been in full swing each time, probably breaking a few of her ribs in the process. Even if she could endure the pain, she'd still feel dizzy from being tossed around like a rag doll. On the other hand, Rei wasn't doing the greatest either with his cut legs. He'd only begun to fight.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade takes amoment to remove a bandage roll from her item bag, small in size she wraps a couple of layers around her gut while watching him, biting her lower lip when she does so. Tolerant to pain she may be, the bandages would allow her to carry on fighting, she had had worse, but she was still a bit disorientated. It would seem for the moment they were more or less equally damaged...

Moonshade calmly puts the roll away and takes the moment to speak, after all she thought with a sirk, audiences loved a bit of banter right?

"Bit of a strong bastard arent you?" She says in quite a sultry tone, flexing her arm.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grins slightly, keeping his stance ready, in case she decided to pull a sneak attack."So I've been told. You're pretty fast, I'll give ya that, but I'm not done yet, not by a long shot."

[shadowknux]

"You're guarding against a sneak attack..." Says Moonshade and smiles almost sweetly, flexing her fingers rapidly on one hand and giving the wrist a flick, seemingly exercising it. "Don't you trust me?"

[Reizer Atma]

"Trust is all a matter of style."Rei explains simply."Ya can't trust that the other guy won't throw a punch below the belt. Gotta be ready for anything, especially against someone who's trained to make every move fatal."

[shadowknux]

"Fatal, yes..." Says Moonshade with a smile, nver changing her expression as a single shadow cone grabs him round the neck from behind.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei's eyes go wide for a moment, but only for a moment. His elbow comes back hard into the clone's kidney multiple times before he grabs it by the arm and tosses it at the original."Close...too close..."

[shadowknux]

At the first blow the clone turned to smoke that enshrouded Rei and obscured his vision completely. In that confusing, disorientating moment he would feel something very sharp slash across his right arm a few times, slicing across and through parts of the arm, rendering it useless...

[Reizer Atma]

Rei quickly slides away from the smoke, clutching his arm with his right hand."Damn...was hoping I wouldn't have to use this so early...oh well." He manages to lift his arm high enough to slide the chains on his left arm over the back of his right hand. As befor, the arm seemed to disassemble itself and reform into the solid metallic arm in an instant."Alright, lets step it up a bit."

[shadowknux]

"Steel limbs, disabling him wont be easy..." Mutters Moonshade to herself, going into a preparatory stance.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei slams his right fist into the ground, sending a shockwave of fragmented earth at her, which she'd have only seconds to dodge.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade dodges to the side with lightning reflexes, the moonlight reflecting off something as she throws a kunai at Rei's right arm.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei pulls back his right arm, the kunai making a sharp 'clank' as it hit the cold, hard metallic substance. He then moves forward after her.

[shadowknux]

The kunai in fact curves around the arm at the last moment, looping round it with metallic wire Moonshade digs her heels in and seems to be trying to pull him...

[Reizer Atma]

Rei wouldn't budge, not even an inch. The metallic limb seemed to make him a bit heavier than before. He grasps the wire and pulls Moonshade toward him instead. Once she was within range, Rei tosses his chain out, whipping it around her other arm. With a swift, hard yank, he pulls her off of her feet and toward him, his foot coming up for a painful kick to her gut.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade smiles as he pulls her towards him, twisting her body to evade the chain with lightning reflexes she loops round Rei's arm and behind him, once she goes behind him and out of his field of vision she performs a small series of hand signs with one hand, Using the momemntum of his own strength that Rei used in the pull she flys round to loop the metal wire round his other arm, the left.

As soon as she lands she slides a little away from Rei to this left, placing the hand on the wire she was gesturing with a powerful surge of electricity surges through the metallic wire and thus the cybernetic arms, a powerful surge that may well short circuit them or damage them at the least.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grits his teeth as he cries out with a roar of pain as the electricity surges through him. However, He takes in a sharp breath, his muscles flexing as his arms fly outward, the wire snapping from the temendous force."First Bullet!"he growls quickly, his right fist thrusting forward with a lightning fast bolt of green energy into Moonshade's chest. He was panting now, his body twitching as it copes with the pain of the shock."Damn...that...hurt...!"It was clear now that this arm was not cybernetic in nature, nor was it simply armor. No, this was something altogether different.

[shadowknux]

When Rei had thrust his arms out Moonshade had realised that staying in front of one of the fists probably wasnt a good idea. She had only just escaped being hit by the green energy bolt with a sideways flip. However, she had only just moved in time and still had been caught a glancing blow on the side...She grunts with the pain of her landing, her right side stained with the blood of a glancing wound.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei pulls his fist back once more and thrusts it forward."Second Bullet!" Another bolt comes flying at her at high speed, this one much larger than the first.

[shadowknux]

Moonshade had been expecting something like this, the phrase 'First Bullet' doesn't exactly suggest it is the alst in the combo. Leaping into the air to avoid it and gesturing with hr hands, she breathes a stream of fire toward Rei's chest, the fire creating a significant flare of smoke as it hits whatever it strikes.

[Reizer Atma]

"Third bullet!"He roars out quickly, the green burst blasting out to meet the flame half way, keeping the two in a deadlock. Whoever let go first would be overwhelmed by the other's blast.

[shadowknux]

Moonshades attack power is not as high as Reis and thus his third bullet smashes through her flame after a few moments. By this time Moonshade wis near the ground as she had leapt backward. However, the jet of flame has generated with its impact a significant degree of thick grey smoke, obscuring Reis vision.

(sorry for the bad grammar, but for some reason it wont let me do apostrophes XP)

[Reizer Atma]

Rei pulls the chain from his left arm, spinning it over his head as he thrusts a punch forward, the force from the blow causing the smoke to be pushed to either side, clearing the way.

[shadowknux]

When the smoke cleared he would see Moonshade right in front of him, striking at his throat with folded knuckles.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei moves his right arm quickly, deflecting the strike to the side while crossing over, throwing a sharp left hook back at her.

[Black Knight]

(Three days have passed, thus SK is now disqualified...)


Battle Five
Steelfists VS Valkyre


Battle Six
Moonshade VS Rei
Raphael looks up at the scoreboard and then down at the arena. "Rei wins!" he exclaims as a medical team run out onto the arena and get Moonshade off it and into the medical bay.
"The finale will start in 10 minutes!"


Grand Finale




Valkyre VS Rei

[Reizer Atma]

Rei steps out of the arena, headding for the medical room to get himself patched up from the earlier fight. He comes back toward the arena with a bottle of water, pouring some on himself. He'd made it to the finals without using his full strength just yet, and so far had only gone through three of six bullets from his revolver arm. It was the final match of the tournament, so he mingh have to step it up one more notch. In any case, he didn't come this far to lose in the final match.

[Kursed]

"Oh finally," Valkyre whispered to herself.
Faust put a hand on her shoulder, "Be careful, Rei defeated me remember."
"Okay who are you and what have you done to Faust," Valkyre chuckled a bit then jumped up to the arena. She turned to Rei. "You ready to get your but kicked."

[Reizer Atma]

"Thats some big talk, considering I haven't even broken a sweat. You haven't even seen half of what I can do."Rei grins, moving into his usual stance."I have no intention of losing this tournament."

[Black Knight]

Raphael looks at the pair and then nods. "May the Final Battle begin!" he shouts

[Kursed]

"Fine then," Valkyre made a fireball in her hands and channelled through her arms as she spread them, the fire shaped itself into dual elbow blades witha long blade on each like a backsword, it looked heavy and was 1.4m long. She spinned then in her hands and stood ready, the blades pointing back.
"Bring it."

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grins and slides the chains on his left arm over the patch on the back of his right hand, calling out the revolver arm right off the bat. He then reaches over his right shoulder with his left hand, pulling one of the six spikes out of place. He crushes it and the sound of a turbine starts aound his left hand. The chaisn around his left arm glow green, then his entire left arm transforms as well. The left arm was now covered in the metal substance as well, though his wrist was bulked up and rounded. It had become the chaingun left arm."Well then, lets get to it."

[Kursed]

Valkyre leapt and trusted her left arm forwards, the long blade spun forward ready to stab

[Reizer Atma]

Rei's left arm thrusts forward with a few quick jabs. Two rapid green shots fired from the wrist. The first one struck her hand, forcing her to drop her weapon, and the second hots her in the chest, knocking her back a few feet."Still think it'll be so easy?"

[Kursed]

Valkyre clutched her injured hand, but snapped her hand back out sending out a heat blast to temporary stun Rei. Valkyre reached down to grab her blade and spinned it as she stood back up, the hooked end cutting Rei's wrist.

[Reizer Atma]

She would be disappointed to find that his wrists were still very much intact, the hook scraping against the metal substance."Wrong move."His right arm snaps out rather quickly for it's weight, landing a hard punch to her left cheek, sending her back an even further distance than the left hand. He then moves back into his stance."You'll have to get a lot more creative if you want to stand achance against me."

[Kursed]

Valkyre stumbled but quickly got her balance back, she glared at Rei. She created a fire ball in both hand and channelled it through her blades.
"Raga. SkefKu!" Valkyre crossed her blades and snapped them out. The fire formed into a orb before being hit again by one if Valkyre's blades. It exploded in front of Rei.

[Reizer Atma]

"First bullet!" he snaps out quickly with his right hand, the green bolt of energy colliding with the explosion, making an even larger explosio, causing both of them to skid back across the ground.

[Kursed]

Valkyre leapt into the sky, she launched both her blades as bommerangs towards Rei. She hovered in place using her wings.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grins, waiting for just the right time to roll out of the way of the blades. He tosses his left fist upward at her a few dozen times, the chaingun arm firing off a good number of small, green energy bolts at her.

[Kursed]

Valkyre fire warped to safety before any of the bullets hit her and caught her spinning blades as they returned.
"You seem to be quite an opponent Rei," Valkyre still hovered in the sky

[Reizer Atma]

"I'm unlike anybody you'll ever fight."Rei calls up after her."Now, are you gunna come down? Or am I gunna have to knock you out of the sky?"

[Kursed]

Valkyre chuckled.
"Raga Kugdetu!" Valkyre launched another fireball that made a small tornado when it exploded in front of Rei

[Reizer Atma]

Rei pulls his fist back, firing off the second bullet to dusrupt the firey tornado that was headed right for him. He then opens his hand, holding an orb of green energy, which he tosses up at her. It stopped just short of hitting her before it exploded in a bright flash, Rei moving to a different position.

[Kursed]

Valkyre saw the move coming and fire warped behind Rei, she creates awave of heet and channels it into Rei's back, estimating the effects either to piss him of or make him go flying.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei drops forward onto his right fist, planting it into the ground, twisting his body slightly to land a hard kick to her gut.

[Kursed]

Valkyre grapped the foot before it hit her stomach and beet her wings. Knowing that Rei was quite heavy she used her fire warp to warp both her and Rei into the sky.
Valkyre hovered, holding Rei by his ankle. Suddenly she let go of Rei.
"Ops," She joked as Rei crahsed into the ground.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei would probably have quite a distance to fall before he hit the ground. He turns quicly to face the ground, firing off his second bullet toward the ground, the blast propelling him upward, past Valkyre. He grins as now he was above her, his left arm gripped tightly by his right, pointed directly at her."Ballistic Barrage!"he roars out. Withing seconds, Valkyre was being rained down upon by what seeme like an endless amount of energy bolts, the gatling arm truely living up to it's name as it all came down on her.

[Kursed]

Valkyre screamed as the bullets came raining down, she blasted both her hands out and created a Heat Wave that slowed most of the bullets down. She zipped out of the way and hovered at the other end of the arena.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei roars out as he continues his offensive, launching the third bullet, a green wave of energy ignighting behind his right shoulder, propelling him straight toward Valkyre at high speed.

[Kursed]

Valkyre did a somersault in the air, shutting her wings. She snapped them back out and did a hard double kick into Rei's back. She warped before he could retaliate.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei reaches out, digging those metallic knuckles into the arena wall, sliding all the way to the ground, his left hand firing off a few shots on the way.

[Kursed]

Valkyre folded her arms as she reappeared, hovering. She channelled her fire into her hands and merged her blades into a double bladed sythe. She spinned and a fire blade was launched, spinning towards Rei.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grins as he hit the ground, reaching ot with his right hand, stopping the blade as it just about hits him. He then tosses it into the arena wall."I think its about time we finished playing around."he looks up at her."Whatta ya say we take it up another notch?"

[Kursed]

Valkyre shut her wings and dived at Rei. She slashed at him with her scthye as Valkyre zipped past him. She returned to the sky.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei steps to the side, riasing his right arm, deflecting the slash with it. His left arm shoots out quickly, grasping Valkyre's ankle, turning sharply to slam her back into the ground."Oh no you don't!"

[Kursed]

Valkyre slammed onto the ground, she growled. "Let me go."

[Reizer Atma]

"You wish!"he growls before turning and slamming her into the ground behind him like a human mace.

[Kursed]

Valkyre hissed as her shoulder made a nasty crack against the ground. She stood back up.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei would barely give her time to get up as his foot comes down hard on her injured shoulder."Sorry, can't let ya get up and fly away again."

[Kursed]

Valkyre looked up at Rei, she growled bearing her fangs. With her ears flat she withdrew her dagger and stabbed Rei's leg that was pinning her down.

[Reizer Atma]

Rei steps back with a growl of his own, his left hand pointed down at her with a grin."Say goodnight." she could see his wrist lock in place, the chaingun pointed right at her."Ballistic Barrage..." a split second later, his chaingun arm unloads blast after blast of the green energy hitting her at close range in rapid succession.

[Kursed]

Valkyre screamed, put up the fire shield. But it wasn't enough and the shield let out a nasty crack. Valkyre's body went limb as she blacked out.

(Fine, you win.... Good game...)

[Reizer Atma]

(Good fight indeed)

Rei's wrist was smoking, as well as his opponent from all the fire he'd just unloaded on her. He raises his right hand in victory, but only for a few moments. His arms return to their normal state as he scoops up Valkyre and heads out of the arena, headding for the medical area to drop her off.

[Black Knight]

Smiling underneth his helmet, Raphael picks up the microphone once more and clears his throat before announcing, loudly.
"Winner of Blackblade Tournament, REI ATMA!!!"

[Reizer Atma]

Rei grins, raising his right arm triumphanty once he got back to the arena.
