(ooc -- I really didnt want to choose it but I guess I will now)

Ravious sat opon a bench near the Grand Stadium eating a very large candy cotton cone.

Yummy for my belly!

Forgetting all about the first match, it didnt really bother Ravious at all. He was more glad that he didnt finish his final spell. It would've made him very sad to burn down that entire forest.

The 2nd matches were to begin at any moment but Ravious was too busy eating. In that very moment his body was teleported away to the new area of The Zolan Lands. Ravious stood there as he notice his cotton candy was missing!

NOOOOO!! Ravious candy gone gone!

Looking around the barren desert. That was all he could say really. The desert seem to hold no life whatsoever. Miles of nothing but desert and the occasional cactus. It was scorching hot and the sun was extremely hot as its rays hit Ravious.

No sun, no sun!

Falling backwards as his fur began to burn from the ray of sunlight, Ravious began to roll around on the ground looking for his wand.

Ravious make sun go away! Away! Bright Light. Bright Light!

Hitting his wand to the ground the area around Ravious is engulf into complete darkness. Not even the rays of the sun could penetrate this darkness. Sitting down on the ground as he patted his fur.

No good no good. Ravious oponent can find me easily now. Darkness hard to miss....

Ravious began to run across the desert as his darkness follows him.

OOC: (Meh, just cutting out all the how i got here crap cause i dont want to slow the fight down more than it already has been...slowed...)

Cheshire was in mid jog when she was teleported to the battlefield. and little did she know, walking on cement then suddenly on sand was a very difficult thing. She fell face first into the sand, which proved thicker and much more dense then she had originally remember it to be. Cheshire got up onto her knees, and looked around, wiping sand from her face and out of her clothes.

Ughhhhh. where am i!

She got up onto her feet slowly, letting a sharp wind cut by her body only to continue on down the valley of sand; kicking up the grains and whipping them into the empty sky. Her skinny body proved a poor match against the wasteland, she found it hard to retain her balance on the uneven ground, but also found herself pulling sand out of places she didnt want to pull sand out of...

Alright, alright, so who's the punk im fighting?!

She looked around herself, noticing she was on somewhat of a hill compared to the rest of the scenery. She looked around and noticed a small furry thing running quickly across the sand, with what looked like a strange shadow chasing after him. Cheshire began to run towards it, regardless of what it turned out to be. But before she got close, she didnt want to find herself caught off guard. She pulled the Queen off of her back and held it carefully.

OOC: ((haha i think thats right. I havent written for so long its horrible. bare with me, i think this is the first creative type writing ive done in...psh. at least a year...regardless. best of luck ravious.))

[ravious]

(ooc -- Good Luck!)

Ravious continue his running through the hot desert until he saw a woman appear before him. A woman holding a weapon which only meant one thing. Ravious stops running and lets the darkness completely engulf him.

Chanting a tiny spell the darkness grows even larger as 2 more Ravious appear next to the original.

Ok me you know plan! She cant hit what she no no see!

The other the original Ravious runs to the left, while 1 illusion stays in the middle and another illusion runs to the right. Hoping to confuse the girl in not knowing which is the real. Each Ravious still had a darkness following them. On three corners stood a Ravious as the darkness grew and attaches to more darkness. As it engulfs the entire area into dark.

[cheshire]

Cheshire finally saw the creature up close. she laughed, she laughed hard and long. She at first wanted to believe this was a joke, that the tournament officials decided to be somewhat lax this year and incorporate some humor. Apparently not.

This small creature was surrounded in some sort of artificial darkness, it hovered around him like a kid chasing his father, and seemed to protect him from the sun. Cheshire tried to be serious, she really did. she tried as hard as she could. but years of concentration and focus on her alchemical instructions couldnt prepare her for this. Fighting a furby was something she had never done, but that wasnt going to stop her.

Cheshire wasted no time, she noticed all three of the furbies had surrounded her, forming a triangle around her location. The darkness that surrounded each of them was slowly growing, and most likely going to engulf her if she didnt do something about it. Cheshire quickly pulled out three cards.

You look cute! she smiled devilishly Hope you like checkers!

She snapped all three of the cards in one hand, and instantly, in a small plume of smoke, three big red checkers appeared in her hand. Each one around the size of the furby himself. She quickly, one by one threw the frisbees at each of the furbies; the big red checkers spinning amazingly fast, and amazingly accurate straight towards each one. If you dont like the sun, you wont like fire!

OOC: (Those checkers explode on contact, just incase you havent checked my profile)

[cheshire]

OOC: (Autohit time has expire...its actually double expired because its been two days...so technically...well whatever T_T)

Cheshire struck gold, the three checkers all hit dead on, impacted fully and forcefully with each of the furbies. What made the collision even more perfect was the fact that the typically small explosion, was in fact a large explosion in comparison to the furbies body. The Red checkers hit, knocked all of the furbies onto their backs, and sent them flying backward from the explosion.

Cheshire scratched the bridge of her nose and raised one eyebrow Are you guys even gonna fight?
To Cheshires surprise, the duplications of the original disappeared after just one hit, so to make it even more perfect, there was only one left. The real Ravious.

Cheshire pulled out The King, enormous in length, width, girth, hell, it was enormous in general. 4 feet in length, at the widest part of the sword, it was a foot and a half wide, the weapon was just more than a sword, it was practically a paddle. Cheshire took grasp of the opportunity, and held it infront of her, the flat sides vertical, and sharp edges horizontal, mimicing that of a cricket paddle. Cheshire stepped forward quickly, and brought the sword down with much force, using both her muscle and the natural force of gravity to squash Ravious entirely.

OOC: (So to make sure you know what im doing...imagine a giant spatula hitting you on your head......that weighs about 200 pounds and is being swung full force...)

[ravious]

(ooc -- yeah when it comes to weekends I cant get on the comps. Whoops sucks for me. Oh just wondering but where is your profile? I cant find it on the Members thingy. Which also sucks for me.)

Ravious slowly got his plan of the darkness to almost complete but the sudden pain of fire engulfs his fur. His illusions disappear with the hit but the real Ravious rolled around panting the fire off. The darkness still engulfs Ravious as he pats the fire off.

Ouchies ouchies! You big meanie!

The fire gave this girl a mark within the darkness and he couldnt pant it off quick enough. Through the darkness he sees her emerge with a weapon in hand and over Ravious's head.

Ravious show you!

Sticking his hands up as he watches her swing downwards on his head, a giant creature leaps from the ground taking the blow for Ravious. Growling in frustration as the metallic golem towers over the girl. Letting out a imtimidating roar as it brings a right hook to the side of her body.

Ravious runs off far away letting the darkness cover up his body once more.

[cheshire]

Cheshire thought it was a hole in one, the sword was swinging down, the furby was underneath it, it was going to be a connect four. But when Cheshires sword was thrown back violently, almost escaping her tight grasp, she began to notice the furby was more than just a ball of.....fur..........by........furby.

What the...

A giant golem, metal in its construction, but destructable in her eyes, arose from where the furby previously sat. Cheshire quickly clipped the sword onto her back, and scanned the area for the furby before the golem took a swing at her. She noticed ravious running off in the distance, he could try to be a needle in a haystack, but in the end the furby stood out like a sore thumb. After all, he was surrounded by a giant dome of darkness, it was quite contrasting.

Cheshire snapped back to attention, and before she could get out of the way the golem threw a huge punch towards her side. She had to react quickly, and knew the perfect thing to do.

Red Light!

The golem stopped completely, its gigantic body and insane momentum had been stopped completely in its tracks, leaving Cheshire to gallop away without any worries. She darted between its legs, and ran after Ravious.

Ravious had made good distance, but regardless, her long feminine legs had much more reach and power behind them then a furbys small portly legs. She caught up quickly, and wasted no time in her attack. She got down low, nearly at the same level as the furby, and made a V with her thumb and her pointer finger. She drove the V shaped strike towards the furbies neck, hoping to cause a momentary loss of breath in addition to the already powerful strike. Meanwhile, the golem had unfrozen.

OOC: (So, yeah, i did catch up with you even though you had been running for a little bit, but regardless. im about twice your size, and 60% of my body are my legs, and in the movie gremlins (where your character is obviously from) the furbys have short legs, probably equivalent to 20-30% of their bodies. So, outrunning you would be extremely easy. I was originally going to make your golem run after me, but i didnt want to god mod anything. so, he is unfrozen, im right next to you hitting you with a V strike...and....your turn)

[ravious]

(ooc -- Well thats obviously true, the only concern I have is how are you able to constantly make contact with something that is completely enshrouded in darkness. Unless you like have infravison or ultravision eyes. Unless that all these complete contact moves really does make no sense. But whatever.)

While Ravious was running away he was muttering a spell as he panting away. While he was near completion the woman stood over him. Those long legs were for nothing after all. As she went downwards for her strike a smile just appears across his face as his body falls through the ground. The darkness spell disappears away as it masters leaves the upper ground.

Ravious sinks beneath the very ground as the quicksand eats him up. Looking down at his earth elemental as he pets his face he goes into his cage-like mouth and sits down as they travel underneath the ground. The earth elemental made a hole in the ground just big enough for its master and a tunnel just tight enough for him to squeeze out of. Ravious squeezes out of the hole to find himself about 100 yards away from the woman this time. But the sun still had him. A simple chant and the darkness spell yet again engulfs his body. Bluntly telling the woman where he was but he needed protection from the light. The earth elemental swam underneath the ground waiting for the chance to protect its master.

The golem was unfrozen and gave a growl of frustration. Bending its legs as it leaps across the sky bringing both fists down upon the female.

[cheshire]

OOC: ( My character has one black eye, and one white eye. When the human body goes into complete darkness, the eye dialates (the black part gets bigger) thus allowing you to see much more in the darkness. And, even more so when you are in your "Fight or Flight" mode, which is a state of being that kicks in when you're in a life or death situation, dialating your eyes extensively to allow you to see much more in the dark. So, because my eye is entirely black, it allows me to see in the dark VERY well, obviously not perfectly, but VERY well because the surface area of the pupil is larger, thus allowing pitch darkness to only be like shade for me. The white eye does the opposite, if there is a sudden increase in light, i can close my black eye, and since the white eye has absolutely no pupil, changes in brightness dont effect it. A long explanation, yes, but at least im thorough. And ugh, all you do is run away, you gotta at least throw some punches at me or something )

Cheshire was surprised to see Ravious drop down into the earth, especially when she noticed there was a complete abscense of water, which is the key element in quicksand, and without it, it cant exist. Regardless, Cheshire readjusted her focus, the golem had somehow managed to jump extremely high into the sky, and was coming down for a double fisted smash, obviously aiming for cheshire.

Fine! If you want to fight with summons, we'll fight with summons!

Cheshire instantly pulled two cards out of a hip satchel, each one a simple number and suit now, but within seconds that wouldnt be the case. Cheshire threw one of the cards at her feet, and another one 10 or so feet out of the way, a good distance away from the golem. From her feet sprung the Rook, Used strictly for defense, the rook has no abilities. It can move in four different directions, and cannot be lifted off the ground, regardless of strength. The rook likes the traditional chess piece, a castle tower. 10 feet away, at the other card, in a plume of smoke appeared the Knight, our typical knight in shining armor. The knight rides on a powerful work horse, holds one large lance, and a two-handed broad sword. He has a full suit of armor, including a full helmet.

The giant golems powerful hands strock the head of the rook right after Cheshire dove out of the way to avoid the strike, not only would it cause a powerful reverberation, but the sharp spires on top of the rooks head could puncture the beasts hands. With the heavy impact, the rook sunk into the sand slightly, rendering it immobile until it got itself free.

At the other card, the powerful Knight had appeared, sitting atop of large workhorse, powerful in its size and strength, but was raised to serve the Knight. Cheshire quickly hopped aboard the Knights back, and commanded him to run towards the spot of darkness far off in the distance. The heavy horses hooves sunk as it took each step, but nothing would slow it down. It picked up speed, going from a walk, to a trot, to a gallop, to finally a full on sprint. The Knight unleashed his Lance, holding it along the side of the horse, aiming it to pierce through the darkness, and stab Ravious fully with the tip of his lance. Feet before, Cheshire had lept into the air and landed a good 20 feet behind Ravious. Cheshire placed a single card on the ground in front of her, and waited to see the outcome of the lance attack.

[ravious]

(ooc -- well if I could read your profile it would make things oh so much easier for me. Oh I dont need to throw punches, I have others doing that for me. I'm barely 2 feet tall! Actually expect me to go into melee?)

Ravious watches the girl from afar as she throws her cards around the area of herself. Ravious knew he couldnt do this alone so he had only one chance to get some new help. While he watches his golem attack hit some kind of animal, Ravious toss some water on his body.

Ravious need Remus. Remus big and tough, he help Ravious!

As his brother began to come forth a loud trotting noise catches Ravious's attention. A knight on a horse charges into the darkness. Being able to see it coming but simply ignoring it. A ground elemental leaps from the ground, teeth first as he bites into the lance. Stopping the vicious attack upon Ravious and the newly develope Remus.

Cant even handle a little girl by yourself huh. Had to call your big brother to the rescue.

Ravious love Remus.

Yeah yeah...you get rid of this Knight. I'll go after her.

Remus takes out his wand as he chants a darkness spell of his own as he charges at the woman. Chanting silently as his image splits into 3.

Ravious knew perfectly well a new summon would exausht (spelling?) him but he had no choice. Pointing his wand up as the droplets of water dripping from his fur, a new pet emerges right beside the knight.

[cheshire]

OOC: (Posting right now, one sec...kind of a long post >_>)

[ravious]

(ooc -- I'll wait until you finish your post. *sits on a tree limb twiddling his thumbs*)

EDIT :: Alright its been 3 days since the last official post and 2 days since you said you were going to post. Either a computer failure or whatnot, I dont know. By all means this fight shouldnt of even of taking place since your member's profile hasnt been put up at ALL the entire fight. Which is all kinds of unfair. Anyways the Ending Day says : Ending Date: Saturday, September 15th, 2006
By the way Aieden, Saturday is Sept. 16th not the 15th. So not sure if today is the ending date or tomorrow. But for the sake of the rules. I'm just going to post again.
Mew.

Ravious watches as the earth pet keeps the Knight still with his jaws. Snapping down even harder the lance breaks in half as the earth pet lunges upward towards the shoulder of the Knight that holds the other weapon. The water elemental glares at the horse of the Knight as it lets out a shriek, emitting razor sharp spears of water out at the side of the horse.

Ravious scurrys away from the battle as he unsummons his golem from afar to regain some of his stamina back.



Remus on the other hand surround the woman. Now were your oponent girly. The name is Remus and lets leave little Ravious out of this! Your all mine! Yells out the three Remus at the same time. The Remus in front of her takes out a tiny gun from his side and beams a smile at her as he pushes the trigger unleashing a mighty bullet towards her chest. One Remus from the right summons forth a golem as he rides on his shoulder. The Remus from the left points his wand at the sky as the clouds form into a pet that begins to fly over their heads.

[cheshire]

OOC: (I think the fights over, messing up the day is easier than the date. Good fight, sorry about not being able to post; computer failures ruin me. I was in the middle of the post when my harddrive crashed. of COURSE, i always have the harddrive crashes. Plus. i dont think its my fault my profile isnt up, robbie was supposed to put my profile up, but i guess never ended up doing it. PLUS PLUS, i dont think it REALLY matters, i never bothered looking at YOUR profile during the fight, so i dont think you not looking at mine really created a disadvantage on your part. Plus, you never even attacked me, so, easier for me.

[A Dragonian]

I typically do not take the time to write an elaborate in-character post for the ending of a match; 'nuff said.

This match was interesting, to say the least. You both fought well, but I did see a lot more potential from one side than I did the other. So, I'm going to be giving this match to Cheshire: 4-1.

Need a reason why? Just read the matches, and you'll see what I mean.
