The dagger sliced through the man's shoulder and the blow had actually thrown him across the white coated battleground as red stained the pure coat with battle. He landed in the snow, but quickly got up and turned to Zane. Suddenly, a blast of some form of...
Aura....
Emitted from him. It was a dark aura that came off of him like a smoke. His familiar eyes gleamed a blood red as he held his blade in a reverse grip and bent his knees close to the ground.
"Trust me." The Master said. "You have hardly seen anything I can do."
In a blink the man popped out of existence and reappeared in flashes a dozen times in different locations before he arrived at Zane and swiped across his body with his blade. Zane's form protected serious damage but blood drew from his chest as he was sent back into the snow.

-
He spun and then threw knives as he recovered, trying to catch his brother off guard.
-
The knives the threw were just barely dodged as the Master avoided them by bending his back backwards and waving his arms in the air to keep himself balanced. However as he got back up he had to recompose....
-
He saw the opening he needed and dashed forward, going for a heavy slam with the infinite blade.
-
Aki let out a grunt as he drew two throwing knives from his body and brought them up to meet the Infinite blade. However, the blade slammed into the blades. This slowed it down, but it didn't stop it from cutting through both of the knives and chopping at Aki. He exploded with Aura as he was sent flying back and crashing into the snow.

Edited by SDK Zane: 6/8/2017 12:00:15 AMAs Zane approached Aki he threw down several knives around him, and thunder started to rumble. "This is for Alex...." The knives formed a runic circle around Aki, a pentagram forming and causing lighting to run up his brothers body.

Edited by Inflatablepants: 6/8/2017 12:02:55 AMAki let out a yell as he fell to his knees. The electricity coursed through him and he stared at his brother in agony. Then, the smoke around him grew and suddenly another blast of aura shot out from him, which seemed to destroy the rune around him. Suddenly Aki dashed towards Zane, a knife in his left hand and his spinning blade in his right.
-
Zane channeled his own dark aura and let out multiple blasts, sending them at his charging brother.
-
The sent Aki back a a bit, but he then dissipated and reappeared in front of Zane and immediately cut across his brothers chest with the spinning blade with a diagonal swing of his hand.
-
He staggered back as blood dripped from his chest, and he glared at Aki as he flicked his wrist which sent more knives out.
-
Aki swung his arms in an attempt to block Zane's knives, however he could only deflect one as the second impaled itself in his shoulder which made the Master stagger back.
-
He followed up by leaping forward and went to deliver a swift kick yo his brothers jaw.
-
Aki however delivered his own kick with his left leg which swung into Zane's leg. This blocked the strike, in which Aki quickly spun around on his heel and jumped and kicked with his right leg with a powerful blow that went into Zane's side and sent him flying away and crashing into the mountain face he had fallen from.
-
He groaned as he fell to the ground, his weapons beside him. He reached for them and got back up, blood trickling down his forehead.
-
Before he could have any time to regain his footing however, he felt himself being bashed back into the mountain face. The Infinite blade left his hand and the back of his head smacked into the mountain. His vision was blurred and his ears ringed but as his mind cleared he saw Aki standing in front of him, his blade in hand and pointed at Zane's throat. Zane felt the cold steel of his little brothers blade touch his neck, and the trickling of blood that came from the broken skin at the tip. "This....is...over!" Aki told Zane with bated breath.
-
He met his brothers eyes, and stared deep into them. "Do it then."
-
Aki seemed to be avoiding eye contact with his brother. They darted away towards his blade rather then Zane's eyes. "You...do you have ANY idea what you put us through Zane?" He asked his brother.
-
He let out a sigh, his arms fell to his side. "I truly did want to come back for you and sis, but I couldn't find away back home....I tried for years in my spare time to find a way back."
-
"That doesn't answer my question!" Aki yelled at him. "Do you have ANY idea?! Can you even comprehend what it's like to have your own brother ABANDON YOU?!"
-
"I'm know....I don't have any good reason for why I left." He placed his hand on his brothers blade, gripping it tightly.
-
Blood drew from Zane's Hand as his brother held his blade at Zane's neck still. "Don't lie to yourself, Zane." Aki told him. "Don't lie to me. You left because you did have a reason. It was a girl. A girl who stole your heart. I suppose that is enough to make someone leave a child army." Aki said sombrely.
-
"That's only a reason, it's not a good one. I shouldn't have left, I should have just completed the contract then came home."
-
"Yes you should have. But we cannot fix the things we regret. Not once we have already taken action."
-
"Then take your revenge, isn't that what you're here to do?"
-
"YES!" Aki said as he looked at Zane. But Zane felt the twitching of his brothers hand on his blade. "I...I know I have to do this. I have to."
-
"Why? Why do you have to kill me?"
