*She bows, whipping her arm out, dramatically gracing herself in the smoky shadows before letting it dissipate*
[b]I am. It may take awhile before I'm back in the swing of things. So many memories are flooding back[/b]
English
-
"This place does that to ya. Really knows how to feel... Nostalgic in a sense."
-
[b]Then let's bring out some more nostalgia and have ourselves a duel. Like old times eh? [/b]
-
"A duel! A good idea..." Royal took a few more steps back, bowing downwards.
-
*Maya returns the bow, you see a split second movement under her from her hands before she seemingly folds into yourself and disappears with a [i]whump[/i]. You hear another [i]whump[/i] behind you, as a spinning Maya attempts to tear strips of your skin off your back with dual knifes*
-
[i]Whump[/i] Royal was gone, with a secondary whump being heard several feet in front of her. He drew his blade, spinning it in his hand and entering a defensive stance "Gotta work on your speed, Maya."
-
Edited by Doos: 7/12/2017 1:03:34 PM[b]I slowed down to test you. Now here's the speed you miss.[/b] *Maya rushes forward. She's disappearing and reappearing as she runs. Each reappearance bringing her closer. In a form called shadow travel, she's using her access points into the Shadow Realm to run erratically towards you. Left, right, above. Each time getting closer. The area is filled with the constant [i]whumps[/i]. One last appearance and she has her legs around your neck, as she twists herself in an attempt to bring you to the ground* [b]Was that fast enough for you hun?[/b]
-
Royal fell flat onto his back, laughing as his sword clanked onto the ground besides him "Yeah, nice work.." He said between laughs, before a [i]Whump[/i] was heard and Maya had a blade against her throat, Royal standing behind her

*Maya laughs in return and in the next second you see black everything as Maya seemingly explodes with shadows that knock the sword and you back. She turns and reaches into a smaller access point by her side. She pulls out an archaic spear that is covered with runes all up and down it's staff. She winced as she feels a dribble of blood on her neck where your sword was still able to nick the skin as it was blasted away.* [b]Oh Ho! You dare nick this beautiful skin? I don't think so my dearest.[/b] *she adopts her signature low stance. Open hand in front of her, right hand grasping the spear above her head, crouching low that her profile is only two feet high, booty is deliciously poking out behind her in the crouch. She wiggles it for a distraction*
-
Royal wasn't fazed by the booth shake, as he wasn't exactly looking there. He was staring at Maya's hands, waiting for an sudden movements as he entered a defensive stance
-
*Maya smirks at your incessant staring and decides to be a tease, she slowly walks forward. Inching, slowly, barely taking any ground. Barely moving. Staying in the low crouch she stalks her prey ever so patiently*
-
"You gonna make me wait?" Royal asked, Almost impatiently
-
*Maya laughs heartedly* [b]Of course. I'm a woman. Didn't your momma teach you about waiting on a woman?[/b] *Maya keeps stalking graciously, never feeling rushed*
-
"In a way, I suppose so." Royal said, shaking his head in dismissal "It was rough."
-
[b]Rough eh? I can relate.[/b] *Maya scowls as she too grows impatient. She launches herself in a pencil spiral towards you. Spear outstretched. But as she gets closer. The air begins to grow hazy from shadowy smoke that fills the air from the edges of her clothing. When you expect her to have reached you, nothing but a light breeze brushes across you. She's seemed to have disappeared in the visibility constricting haze, but without the telltale [i]whump[/i]. A twig snaps behind you, a leaf is brushed in front of you, a bird flies away scared to your left, and a squelch from a boot in mud sounds off to your right. Surrounded* [b]I'm sorry. I too got impatient I guess.[/b]
-
"Is this... Something new?" Royal asked, not moving from the position he was in. He kept his eyes forward, he knew this game all too well

Edited by Doos: 7/12/2017 6:14:44 PM[spoiler]this is the [lack of a better name....] shadow clones. Minimal damage and small health unless reinforced. Fml it sounds like Naruto... But anyways. I can only make ten and can't make any new ones until the turn [i]after[/i] the last one is destroyed. Ex: last clone is destroyed. One turn is incapable of making any. The next turn I have the capability to make one clone. Or however many turns after to regain the strength to make all ten clones, (ten turns after the turn that I can remake clones)[/spoiler] *a whistling noise appears from above and a clone slams into your form from above, the impact causes it to explode into nothing, but the attempt was only made to hopefully throw you off balance. At the moment of impact, ten other versions of Maya come rushing in from every angle* [b]Choose quickly or die Roy. [/b] *they all say in unison*
-
[spoiler]I'M very familiar with yeah shadow clone business. But it's smart to get one each reply [/spoiler] Royal had fallen to one knee, smiling slightly. He leaped forward, stabbing one through the chest before spinning around and decapitating two more. Their shadowy forms disappeared, leaving another seven against Royal. Five [i]whumps[/i] ensued, with another two of the shadow clones disappearing, and leaving Royal a dozen feet away from the others. In mere moments, the ten clones had been reduced to five.
-
*two of the clones, one with a spear and one with dual knives, fell to one knee and opened their mouths in a loud incoherent scream, from their mouths poured a massive amount of shadows from the other dimension, which then turned into tangible whips. They spun out to wrap themselves on Roy's appendages at lightning speed. The three other Maya's somersaulted into the air over the two kneeling. They came down. Two with spears and one with dual knifes. They glared at Roy and launched themselves at the same time. The one with knives disappeared with a [i]whump[/i] and another [i]whump[/i] sounds behind you. You see a smile on one of the Maya's with a spear, the other has a scowl* [b]So far the wrong choices, choose smarter Roy.[/b] [spoiler]thanks. I figured I should put limitations on them. Also. I made the clones all slightly different in this reply so you can make a choice if you choose. Or not if you decide that also. [/spoiler]
-
"The wrong choices? You're the one that didn't notice [b][i]my[/i][/b] clones, Maya." The two clones that had screamed were destroyed, with two clones of Royal standingin their place. Without the two portal openers, the tendrils released Royal and disappeared, allowing him to him the final three down easily. "Now reveal yourself! You're making this fight about the grunts!"
-
Edited by Doos: 7/12/2017 7:04:38 PM*One of the three you cut down stands up and laughs in your ear, as she has a knife to your throat* [b]I don't believe in grunts only. I fight with them. While I've kept my eyes on you the whole time. You've lost sight of me. That was wrong choice numero uno, Senor.[/b] *she throws a flash ball in the air that illuminates the entire arena, shadows gone. She places sunglasses on and then reaches underneath the lens and pulls out shadow knives which she impales the two clones.* [b]I may not know how many clones you can reach. But it can't be more than five or six considering our differences in training. Hopefully you have no other abilities that create clones though. That could be problematic. Now what to do with my caught little mouse.[/b] *she draws a little blood for revenge on the previous nick* [spoiler]I know this one was a little long. Oopsie.. I'm sorry. I got carried away explaining. Lol[/spoiler]
-
[i]Whump [/i] He appeared two feet in front of Maya, with the tip of his blade against her throat "We had differences in our training. Mainly, my light powers were the difference. Seem you've forgotten, little mouse." Royal said, keeping the tip of the blade against her throat "Well fought though."
